Walks
Fishermans Rock – walk west along the bush path from the playground at Berrara Creek to Fisherman’s Rock. A good steady walk with many varieties of flora and fauna.
Mermaids – a must do.

A great walk to do with the kids. Unfortunately no dogs allowed on this beach.
Places to eat
We are located in a remote location so our fine dining options are limited! The kitchens in our accommodation are well equipped so take advantage of this and cook up a storm while you’re here. Nowra Fresh on the way down from Sydney offers great fresh seafood, meat and veggies. SPAR supermarket in Sussex Inlet is open until 7pm most nights so also very handy. Cuddy General Store is a short walk away from us and has a lovely view of Swan Lake.
