More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the coach into a light salt wind and a sweep of white sand that almost hurts to look at—the beaches of Jervis Bay demand your attention. The day moves like a coastal film: a cliff-top view over the Sea Cliff Bridge, a muted stomp through a wildlife park where a ranger lets you meet a koala, and wide, luminous stretches of Hyams Beach where the sand is famously pale.

History
Jervis Bay rests on Yuin country and later saw European maritime activity and whaling; sections of the coast were set aside for conservation as awareness of their ecological value grew.
Conservation
Much of the bay sits near protected reserves and marine parks—use reef‑safe sunscreen, stay on marked paths, and avoid disturbing nesting birds and dune vegetation.
