Jervis Bay Currarong, Callala Beach, Callala Bay, Myola, Vincentia and Hyams Beach
An area of brilliant white sands and pleasant bushwalking.
Located about 170 km from Sydney, Jervis Bay is both an inlet and the basis of the uniquely beautiful Booderee National Park which is a popular holiday destination.

The Bay itself is approximately15km long and 10km wide. It is a spacious natural harbour sheltered by headlands of forest and headland which jut out leaving a relatively narrow entrance. With a depth of 27 metres it is thought to be the deepest sheltered harbour in Australia. The waters are remarkably beautiful and range in hue from aquamarine to a deep blue.

The fauna and the flora are diverse. There is eucalypt forest, woodland, swamps, dunes, mangrove, rainforest relics, coastal scrub, grassland and a headland rich in wildflowers.

There are lakes and estuaries, historic sites, high sandy ridges, a coastline of coves, majestic cliffs up to 135 metres, and beaches noted for their length and the remarkable whiteness of their sands.
