Jervis Bay is a popular tourist destination on NSW south coast. It boasts powder-white sands, crystal clear waters, extensive areas of intact native vegetation and plenty of opportunities for recreational activities, including diving, snorkelling, boating, fishing and whale watching.
The area has significant Aboriginal cultural and heritage value, including the Booderee National Park, which is managed by the Wreck Bay Aboriginal community in collaboration with Parks Australia.
Jervis Bay is also home to one of Australia’s largest commercial mussel-growing leases.
