Far South Coast: Home
Rugged coastlines, unspoilt beaches, historic towns, great shopping, lots of attractions– these are just some of the reasons to visit the Far South Coast of NSW. Stretching from Eden in the south to Batemans Bay in the north, the region is a place of great natural beauty, with National Parks waiting be explored and empty beaches that seem to go on forever. Whales can easily be seen just a short boat ride away, and all along the coast and inland there are plenty of attractions the whole family will enjoy.
With a thriving arts culture, a fantastic restaurant and café culture and a wealth of boutiques and specialty retailers, it’s not all about the great outdoors. Make time to explore the out-of –the-way places – you’ll be amazed at what you’ll find.
