There’s also a local golf course and a sporting ground, Pump Track and a skate park in Shoalhaven Heads itself. Head a bit out of town to visit wineries, craft galleries, national parks, Jervis bay, and the surrounding areas – a multi cinema complex in nearby Nowra, historic Berry with many craft and antique shops, and the Naval Aviation Museum at HMAS Albatross.

There are many national parks in the area, including Jervis Bay, Fitzroy Falls, and the Minnamurra Rainforest.

Enjoy the ultimate Jervis Bay expedition when natural beauty and extraordinary wildlife merge together on Jervis Bay Wild. Showcasing two purpose-built vessels, “Wild Essence of Jervis Bay” and “Port Venture”, passengers can view dolphins, whales, and other sea life underwater in the wild. With “Wild Essence” featuring underwater viewing windows, and “Port Venture” fitted with a submersible camera, these magnificent creatures are revealed in a way never before available to the visitors of Jervis Bay.

While you are in the area, take some time and visit the Illawarra Fly Treetop Walk. The award winning Illawarra Fly is one of Australia’s premier rainforest experiences. The 1500 metre long rainforest walk includes the 500 metre long, 25 metre high elevated treetop walk, which provides a new and unique viewing perspective of the rainforest along the Illawarra escarpment. The walkway’s two swaying springboard cantilevered sections take you to the edge of the escarpment. Ensure you climb the spiral staircase and take in the breathtaking views from the treetop walk’s 45 metre high lookout tower – Knight’s Tower.
