Two Week Sydney to Melbourne Road Trip Itinerary (The Coastal Route)

June 8, 2020 by Jen Lyons Leave a Comment

Australia’s mainland has more than 35,000 kms of coastline to explore and some of the country’s best can be found in between Sydney and Melbourne.

From spectacular beaches to quaint coastal country towns, the NSW South Coast and Victorian Gippsland Coast offer something for everyone.

With lots to see and do, where do you start planning your Sydney to Melbourne road trip itinerary.

First, you need to work out how long you want to go for. From there you can determine how many places you’ll be able to fit into your time. However if you want to see all the best bits in one trip, my suggestion would be to allow at least two weeks.

If you don’t have quite as much time to spend then you can use this itinerary and pick parts out of the trip to explore at different times. And if you are departing from Melbourne, all you have to do is reverse the itinerary, simple!

Hiring a Vehicle

First thing you will need is a vehicle. If you live in Sydney/Melbourne or nearby, you’ll likely have your own car. If you will be flying into Sydney or Melbourne you’ll need to hire a car, campervan or caravan.

There is plenty of different types of accommodation available on the route to accommodate those travelling both by car and by campervan or caravan. Holiday parks with space for campervans, caravans and campers are in abundance in most towns along the coast.

A car will give you more freedom to park on the side of the road to discover something new. While campervan’s and caravans are your home on wheels. There are pros and cons to both options.

Which ever option you choose, Expedia has great car, campervan and caravan hire options with comparative prices. Most offer one way hire options too.

Two Week Sydney to Melbourne Road Trip Itinerary

Two Week Sydney to Melbourne Road Trip Itinerary - The Trusted Traveller

Day 1 to 3 – Sydney to Jervis Bay

The drive from Sydney to Huskisson (the main town on Jervis Bay) is under three hours, depending on where in Sydney you are leaving from. Leave early which will allow you plenty of time for exploration along the way. Here are a few of my suggested stops.

  • The Royal National Park – One of the oldest National Parks in the world, there is heaps to explore here and you could quite easily spend a week just seeing everything in the park. For this trip I’d suggest driving through the park rather than taking the highway south. Maybe make a stop at the Audley Boatshed for a coffee or short walk at Wattamolla.

  • The Grand Pacific Drive – This is a beautiful stretch of coastal road with stunning beaches and breathtaking bridges that allow you to drove over the ocean away from the sheer cliffs above. You can read more about some of my favourite spots on the Grand Pacific Drive here.

  • Wollongong – The 10th biggest city in Australia, don’t let this put you off as most of the city is facing the coast and has a really relaxed vibe. Wollongong is a great place to stop halfway through your drive to Kiama to have a dip in the ocean and grab a bite to each for lunch. There are lots of great cafes, restaurants and take-away stores along the beaches.

Norhtbeach, Wollongong - The Trusted Traveller

  • Kiama – This sleepy seaside town is packed full of restaurants, cafes, boutique shopping and of course beautiful beaches. Check out the famous Blowhole, Terrace and Sandstone Walk Shops and those aforementioned beaches.

  • Berry – One of the top quaint towns in NSW, in Berry you will find plenty of great places to eat, lovely little local shops selling locally made items and some top pubs. If you are there for breakfast or morning tea, check out the Milkwood Bakery or for lunch the meals at the Great Southern Hotel are always great. Just a few minutes drive from the main street is the Berry Treat Factory, a great place to stock up on treats for the long road trip ahead.

Quaint shops in Berry - The Trusted Traveller

  • Shoalhaven Heads – The quintessential sleepy seaside town. A nice place for a stroll to stretch the legs after being in the car. The Shoalhaven River meets the sea here so you get the best of both worlds, nice river and ocean views.

What to See & Do in Jervis Bay

Jervis Bay is a year round destination fringed with stunning beaches, pristine national and marine park and quaint little towns with an abundance of delicious places to eat and drink. The whole area has a very chilled out vibe with lots to see and do for all ages.

  • Booderee National Park – Home to some the the areas most stunning beaches like Caves Beach and Murray’s Beach where you might run into a few of the local kangaroos who like to hang out in the car park. This National Park also has some great short walks, ruins and lovely Botanical Gardens. You could easily spend a day or more just exploring this park.

Murrays Beach, Jervis Bay, Australia

  • White Sands Walk – Beginning at Greenfield Beach picnic area this walk takes you on a loop past some of the best white sand beaches on the bay including world famous Hyam’s Beach, said to have the whitest sand int he world. The whole loop takes about an hour and is relatively flat, so good for most fitness levels.

  • See Whales and Dolphins – During whale season (roughly June to November), these majestic creatures like to make their way into the bay and sometimes put on a bit of a show. However, if you’re not in the area during whale season then you can still see the amazing dolphins that live in the bay. The best way to see these creatures is on a cruise, check out some option in the box below.

  • Point Perpendicular Lighthouse – On the northern end of Jervis Bay, this lighthouse offers spectacular views looking out over the bay and through the opening out to sea. You can even make out the white sands of the beaches that rim the bay.

  • Nearby St Georges Basin – Just 10 minutes from Huskisson (the main town in Jervis Bay) is St Georges Basin, a shallow lake home to some of the regions most beautiful flora and fauna. From Erowal Bay and the few towns along the Basin you’ll be able to go fishing, see flocks of birds take off and land on the still water and watch kangaroos lazing by the shore just before sunset. Its one of the most peaceful places on earth.

Day 4 to 5 – Jervis Bay to Batemans Bay

Heading further south in the morning from Jervis Bay, the drive to Batemans Bay is about two hours with lots of beach stops and detours along the way.

  • Lake Conjola – On the lake of the same name, this sleepy little town is a short detour from the highway and a great place to grab a coffee and stretch your legs with a walk along the lake front.
  • Milton – A little further south on the highway is the historic town of Milton which is packed with art galleries, antiques and, surprisingly for the location, fine dining restaurants. Grab a treat from the Heritage Bakery at the very least.
  • Mollymook – Popular holiday spot for families in summer, I love the beach here which is patrolled during summer and great for a swim or surf. The town also has some great beach cafes and fish and chip shops, so this could be a good place to grab a late breakfast or lunch.

Mollymook Beach - The Trusted Traveller

  • Pretty Beach in the Murramarang National Park – Taking the Bawley Point turn off from the highway, this slightly longer detour is worth it for the stunning and secluded beach you’ll find at the end, Pretty Beach. From Pretty Beach there are lots of walks you can do, keeping your eye out for kangaroos in the grass. Also a great spot for a picnic.

What to See & Do in Batemans Bay

Arriving in Batemans Bay will be the start of your adventures in the Eurobodalla region of the NSW South Coast. Famous for amazing beaches and waterways perfect of outdoor activities and food, incredible local sourced food. The countryside through the whole region is rolling hills with grazing cows on the right as you head south and aqua blue ocean on the left.

  • Oysters! – The Clyde River which runs right through Batemas Bay is home to plenty of oyster leases meaning an abundance of local oysters for you to eat. My favourite spot to grab and oyster is The Oyster Shed on Wray St where you will get the freshest oysters served either on the deck over looking the river or for takeaway.

  • Mogo – 10 minutes south of Batemans Bay is the tiny town of Mogo. The street is lined with quaint antique and crafty stores as well as a few great places to grab a bite to eat, maybe even a locally made cake. While in Mogo, check out the zoo there which has a great reputation for the protection of endangered species, you can even feed a giraffe!

Mogo - NSW South Coast Road Trip Itinerary - The Trusted Traveller

  • Hit the Beach – There are lots of beaches around Batemans Bay. My favourite would have to be McKenzies Beach in Malua Bay, just south of town on the coastal tourist drive. Its less crowded and has beautiful semi enclosed surrounding cliffs.

McKenzies Beach, Malua Bay - The Trusted Traveller

  • Mossy Point – On the coastal tourist drive south of Batemans Bay is this lovely little coastal township where the Tomago River meets the sea. Down by the river mouth you can hire a kayak and paddle up the river spotting sting rays as they glide under the kayak. It is pristine beauty.

Kayaking at Mossy Point - The Trusted Traveller

  • Durras Discovery Trail – Just north of Batemans Bay off the highway is the southern part of the Murramarang National Park where you will find this 1.5km loop walk through the rainforest. It is a great escape from the beaches in summer with temperatures generally lower in the rainforest.

Day 6 to 7 – Batemans Bay to Merimbula

Again, make an early start to allow yourself plenty of time for stops along the way with stunning part of the coastline between Batemans Bay and Merimbula. The drive, without stops is only just over two hours. Check out some of the following places on your way through.

  • Moruya Heads – A sleepy coastal town with great Tuesday local farmers markets and beautiful views where the Moruya River meets the sea.

Sage Farmers Market - The Trusted Traveller

  • Coila Prawns – If you love prawns, a stop at the service station on the highway here will allow you to buy some of the freshest prawns you can get. These are not just any prawns though, they are Coila Lake prawns which are small, sweet and delicious, with the prawns completing their entire lifestyle in enclosed waters, which is rare.
  • Tuross Head – Another lovely sleepy town along the coast and probably one of my favourites. There’s a great short tourist drive you can do around Tuross Head if you don’t have much time here. It takes in all the best spots around town including some lovely lookout spots.

Tuross Beach, Tuross Head - The Trusted Traveller

  • Bodalla Dairy Shed – Cheese and dairy lovers will be in heaven in this place. Here you can taste and buy locallly made dairy products include the Bodalla Cheese Company. I especially like their saltbush cheese for something different and don’t forget to grab a deliciously fresh milkshake for the road.

Cheese Tasting in the Bodalla Dairy Shed - The Trusted Traveller

  • Dalmeny Drive Detour – Not long before arriving in Narooma, you can turn off the highway and continue the rest of the way along the coastal Dalmeny Road for beautiful beaches and coastal views. There is also a coastal walking path which you can walk part of to stretch your legs after the drive.
  • Narooma – Narooma is gateway to some of the best beaches, snorkeling and wildlife on the NSW South Coast. Set on the Wagonga Inlet, it is a popular place for family holidays, fishing and lazy days at the beach.
  • Tilba Tilba – Similar to Mogo, this historic little town is home to some quaint little galleries and antique shops as well as cafes selling local produce.

  • Camel Rock – One of the oldest rocks known in NSW. Access the beach of the same name via the car park and take a walk along the beach to see the rock which is, as the name says, shaped like a camel.

What to See & Do in Merimbula

The heart of the Sapphire Coast, Merimbula is lively coastal village surrounded by pristine marine and national parks. There is an abundance of things to see and do for those who love being outdoors and lots to keep the foodies happy too.

  • Ben Boyd National Park – Named after entrepreneur, Ben Boyd, the park was first established in 1973 and encompasses an area of over 10,000 hectares. It’s the perfect place for nature and wildlife lovers to explore with plenty of excellent walking tracks, interesting geological features and structures, beautiful beaches and opportunities to spot wildlife. You could easily spend a day or more exploring the park.

  • Enjoy the Beaches – Right in the heart of town you will find great beaches to relax and enjoy some water sports. For something a bit quieter, head further south to Pambula or Eden.

  • More Oysters! – If you haven’t had your fill of this delicious morsels yet then you are in the right place. Pambula oysters are among some of the best in Australia. While you can buy them all over the region fresh, it doesn’t come fresher than joining Sponge on his Magical Oyster Tour around his Pambula River oyster leases. He will even pull an oyster fresh from the water for you to try. Read more about my tour experience with Sponge here.

  • Whale Watching – From September to November each year humpback whales can be seen off the Sapphire Coast making their way south to Antarctica for the summer. There are of course lots of places where you can spot them from the shore but the best way to get up close to these incredible creatures is on cruise.
  • Take a Walk – There a many great walks around the Sapphire Coast for all fitness levels:
    • Merimbula Boardwalk that starts from right in the heart of Merimbula and follows the water’s edge for 3.4 km to Lakeview Drive;
    • Eden Boardwalk takes you around Curalo Lake and along Aslings Beach for about 6km; and
    • Mt Imlay is a challenging half day walk to the summit is 6 km of steep track that requires a bit of rock climbing and scrambling. Your efforts are rewarded at the top with nice views of the surrounding area.

Day 8 to 9 – Merimbula to Mallacoota

Just a hop, skip, jump over the boarder into Victoria from Merimbula and you are in Mallacoota in under an hour and a half. Break up the drive by exploring Ben Boyd National Park (mentioned above) on the way if you didn’t have time while in Merimbula.

What to See & Do in Mallacoota

This sleepy little East Gippsland town in the far east of the state is what I believe to be one of Australia’s best kept secrets. It is a peaceful haven located quite literally in the middle of nowhere which is why it has stayed virtually untouched. If you love fishing, swimming, walking, wildlife and generally being in the great outdoors, then Mallacoota is a place you will want to check out when exploring Australia.

  • Croajingolong National Park – A UNESCO world biosphere reserve, the Croajingolong National Park features 100km of rugged and unspoilt coastline and covers 87,500 hectares. Within the park is a thousand year old pristine eucalypt forest and rainforest that combine to give you a very unique glimpse of wilderness. The park is home to more than 300 different types of birds and over 1000 native plant species which you can see on nature hikes, beach walks or while camping.

  • Fishing – Mallacoota is a one of the best places for fishing in Australia with a wide abundance of fish regularly caught including tailor, luderick, perch, garfish and mulloway.

Day 10 to 12 – Mallacoota to Gippsland Lakes

Another short drive, just two and half hours between Mallacoota and Lakes Entrance, the main town of the Gippsland Lakes. You can make a few detours on the way to Cape Conran, Marlo and Orbost.

What to See & Do in the Gippsland Lakes

The Gippsland Lakes cover an area of 345 square kms joining the rivers Avon, Thomson, Latrobe, Mitchell, Nicholson and Tambo that fill the lakes, marshes, and lagoons. The lakes are popular for boating, fishing, and camping. I recommend basing yourself in the Lakes Entrance area as there are lots of accommodation options and it also provides you with easy access to the whole area.

  • Silt Jetties – These naturally forming narrow banks of silt stretch for 8kms into the Gippsland Lakes and are located near Eagle Point where they form the mouth of the Mitchel River.  You can drive out onto the silt jetties on an unsealed road where you will find lots of people fishing.

  • Paynesville & Raymond Island – Known as the boating capital of Victoria, Paynesville is a great place to get out on the water or enjoy activities around the foreshore. Explore the lakes and canals on foot or cruise or take the Raymond Island Ferry across to the home of a large koala population on Raymond Island. Once on Raymond Island, you can walk or cycle the island’s Koala Trail and spot the resident koala’s which are usually seen sleeping high up in a gum tree.

  • Take a Lake Cruise – The most popular way to enjoy the Gippsland Lakes is on a cruise. Various cruises leave from the towns of Paynesville, Metung, Loch Sport and Lakes Entrance making them very accessible to all visitors. Each cruise has a slightly different route but all offer the same picture perfect views.

Things to Do in Gippsland Victoria - The Trusted Traveller

  • Metung – The charming village of Metung is probably one of my favourite parts of the Gippsland region. It is great for scenic walks along the lake,  fantastic local food including a great monthly farmers market and unique coastal themed galleries. As with the most of the region, it is also a popular spot for fishing with the lakes side and wharf’s usually lined with people casting out a line.

Things to Do in Gippsland Victoria - The Trusted Traveller

  • Buchan Caves – These caves a short 45 minutes drive north of Lakes Entrance and are some of the best publicly accessible caves in Victoria. Here you will find two limestone caves that are accessible to the public through a guided tour, the Fairy Cave and the Royal Cave. The reserve around the cave is absolutely stunning, especially in Autumn. Have a picnic or hike one of the trails that lead off from the picnic grounds, just make sure you keep an eye out for wildlife, there is an abundance in the area.

Getting Back to Sydney/Melbourne

If this is your first time visiting Sydney to Melbourne, I suggest allowing yourself some extra time at either end of the trip to explore these great Aussie cities too.

You have a few options to get back to Sydney or Melbourne once your road trip is over.

The quickest way is of course the fly but wheres the adventure in that!

You can also drive the inland route via the Victorian High Country, Albury, the NSW Snowy Mountains, Canberra and the Southern Highlands. If you have a few more days to spare on your holiday, you can make a few stops along the way in these regions. Driving straight without stops, this route will take about 10 hours.

Two Week NSW South Coast Road Trip Itinerary

April 6, 2020 by Jen Lyons Leave a Comment

For those who live in Sydney, a road trip down the NSW South Coast is pretty much a rite of passage. I have many fond memories from my childhood, and during my adult life, of holidays visiting parts of this stunning and often underrated part of Australia.

The NSW South Coast is generally quieter than travelling north from Sydney. The beaches more untouched, the towns more quaint and the local produce in abundance. It ticks all the boxes for all kinds of trips, from family holidays, couple road trips and friend group getaways.

With lots to see and do, where do you stay with planning your NSW South Coast road trip itinerary.

First, you need to work out how long you want to go for. From there you can determine how many places you’ll be able to fit into your time. However if you want to see all the best bits in one trip, my suggestion would be to allow at least two weeks.

If you don’t have quite as much time to spend then you can use this itinerary and pick parts out of the trip to explore at different times.

Hiring a Vehicle

First thing you will need is a vehicle. If you live in Sydney or nearby, you’ll likely have your own car. If you will be flying into Sydney you’ll need to hire a car, campervan or caravan.

There is plenty of different types of accommodation available on the NSW South Coast to accommodate those travelling both by car and by campervan or caravan. Holiday parks with space for campervans, caravans and campers are in abundance in most towns along the coast.

A car will give you more freedom to park on the side of the road to discover something new. While campervan’s and caravans are your home on wheels. There are pros and cons to both options.

Which ever option you choose, Expedia has great car, campervan and caravan hire options with comparative prices.

Things to See Between Sydney and Kiama

Leaving Sydney you have many options for places to stop and explore along the way. In order below is a list of some of my favourites:

  • The Royal National Park – One of the oldest National Parks in the world, there is heaps to explore here and you could quite easily spend a week just seeing everything in the park. For this trip I’d suggest driving through the park rather than taking the highway south. Maybe make a stop at the Audley Boatshed for a coffee or short walk at Wattamolla.

  • The Grand Pacific Drive – This is a beautiful stretch of coastal road with stunning beaches and breathtaking bridges that allow you to drove over the ocean away from the sheer cliffs above. You can read more about some of my favourite spots on the Grand Pacific Drive here.

  • Wollongong – The 10th biggest city in Australia, don’t let this put you off as most of the city is facing the coast and has a really relaxed vibe. Wollongong is a great place to stop halfway through your drive to Kiama to have a dip in the ocean and grab a bite to each for lunch. There are lots of great cafes, restaurants and take-away stores along the beaches.

What to See & Do in Kiama

The sleepy town of Kiama is the perfect place the stay the night. This lively town is full of restaurants, cafes and boutique shopping as well as some must see attractions around the area.

  • The Blowhole – This natural phenomena is basically a hole in the volcanic rock that stoats water metres into the air when the sea rushes underneath. It is said to be at its best when the seas run from the south east but having been there dozens of times myself, I haven’t left disappointed regardless of the sea direction.

Kiama Blowhole - The Trusted Traveller

  • Kiama Seaside Markets – Kiama hosts two monthly markets, on the third Sunday of the month for handmade goods and the other on the fourth Saturday of the month selling local produce.
  • Terrace and Sandstone Walk shops – This small collection of shops are housed in restored timber houses circa 1886 which are the last of their kind. They were originally built by the local miners and today house boutique shops, restaurants and cafes.

  • Kiama Coast Walk – This 20 km walk along a sign posted coastal track takes you from Minnamurra Village through Kiama and finishes at Werri Beach in Gerringong, south of Kiama. You can do the walk in sections or complete it in a whole day.
  • The Beaches – Kiama has some fantastic beaches for all occasions. Looking to spend the day relaxing and swimming, head to Surf Beach which is patrolled; wanting to escape and have a beach all to yourself, check out Jones Beach which is also a great spot to see the Cathedral Rocks; endless stretches of sand can be found at Seven Mile Beach just south of Kiama in Gerroa; or my personal favourite Werri Beach where you can enjoy all of the above plus watch the locals surfers in action.

Jones Beach, Kiama Downs - The Trusted Traveller

  • Jamberoo – Famous for the water park of the same name, there is more to Jamberoo than waterslide. A nice short countryside drive inland from Kiama, Jamberoo has weekend markets, quaint stores and a small array of excellent cafes.

Heading further south in the morning from Jervis Bay, the drive to Batemans Bay is about two hours with lots of beach stops and detours along the way.

  • Lake Conjola – On the lake of the same name, this sleepy little town is a short detour from the highway and a great place to grab a coffee and stretch your legs with a walk along the lake front.
  • Milton – A little further south on the highway is the historic town of Milton which is packed with art galleries, antiques and, surprisingly for the location, fine dining restaurants. Grab a treat from the Heritage Bakery at the very least.
  • Mollymook – Popular holiday spot for families in summer, I love the beach here which is patrolled during summer and great for a swim or surf. The town also has some great beach cafes and fish and chip shops, so this could be a good place to grab a late breakfast or lunch.

Mollymook Beach - The Trusted Traveller

  • Pretty Beach in the Murramarang National Park – Taking the Bawley Point turn off from the highway, this slightly longer detour is worth it for the stunning and secluded beach you’ll find at the end, Pretty Beach. From Pretty Beach there are lots of walks you can do, keeping your eye out for kangaroos in the grass. Also a great spot for a picnic.

What to See & Do in Batemans Bay

Arriving in Batemans Bay will be the start of your adventures in the Eurobodalla region of the NSW South Coast. Famous for amazing beaches and waterways perfect of outdoor activities and food, incredible local sourced food. The countryside through the whole region is rolling hills with grazing cows on the right as you head south and aqua blue ocean on the left.

  • Oysters! – The Clyde River which runs right through Batemas Bay is home to plenty of oyster leases meaning an abundance of local oysters for you to eat. My favourite spot to grab and oyster is The Oyster Shed on Wray St where you will get the freshest oysters served either on the deck over looking the river or for takeaway.

  • Mogo – 10 minutes south of Batemans Bay is the tiny town of Mogo.

While in Mogo, check out the zoo there which has a great reputation for the protection of endangered species, you can even feed a giraffe!

  • Mossy Point – On the coastal tourist drive south of Batemans Bay is this lovely little coastal township where the Tomago River meets the sea. Down by the river mouth you can hire a kayak and paddle up the river spotting sting rays as they glide under the kayak. It is pristine beauty.

When I say the phrase, ‘culinary regions of Australia’, what are some of the first regions that come to mind for you? I’m going to hazard a guess and say that you at least thought of Australia’s culinary capital, Melbourne, or it’s biggest city, Sydney. And maybe those in the know might have thought of Mudgee or the Adelaide Hills, two of Australia most prominent foodie regions.

These are all wonderful places to indulge in a culinary treat or two but today I want to tell you about another region that might not be so well know to you for their culinary delights. Maybe you’ve heard about the regions spectacular beaches or sleepy seaside towns full of charm. But after reading this we hope you’ll be wanting to visit to experience the cuisine too.

I’m talking about the New South Wales South Coast region of Eurobodalla.

Eurobodalla is one of four regions to occupy the coastline south of Sydney. It is home to well known towns like Batemans Bay, Moruya and Narooma, as well as historic villages like Mogo, Tilba and Bodalla.

Most who visit this part of Australia go there for the beaches and laid back vibe, and to be honest that’s why we chose to start our Australian road trip there. But now having spent a few weeks exploring the region, we think it needs to be on everyone’s foodie radar.

Why? Well it’s in the heart of Australia’s oyster coast for one. It’s also home to a unique weekly market where you can only buy produce from local sources. It’s a world class dairy region. And it has over the years, and still does, attract some of the worlds best chefs to set up restaurants because of the abundance of incredible produce available nearby.

Have I sold it to you yet? Well if you need just a little more convincing, here are seven Eurobodalla culinary delights we enjoyed during our time in the region and think they are not to be missed. We hope that these and the many more you can find on the Eurobodalla tourism website  will inspire you to choose Eurobodalla as a culinary destination for your next trip.

Located on the banks of the Clyde River, the Oyster Shed is the ultimate farm gate experience for oyster lovers. Here they farm and sell both Sydney Rock oysters and Pacific oysters in the crystal clear waters.

As well as enjoying a dozen of their oysters in the sun overlooking the river, you must be sure to speak to the lovely owners, Mark and Enola. Mark is a 4th generation oyster farmer and he’s been working in the family business for coming up to 40 years now. They both have lots of stories to tell and are full of information about the processes involved in oyster farming.

What We Ate: Half dozen each of the Pacific and Sydney Rock oysters with a squeeze of lemon.

Pizza doesn’t get much better than what they serve at Sam’s and it comes with a prime waterfront position too. Emma and Jo have done an awesome job creating authentic woodfired pizzas, some with a twist.

They keep the toppings light, the pizza base is chewy yet soft with a crunchy crust, they love their beer with a guest craft brew or two on the specials board and the service is some of the friendliest we’ve come across in our travels.

Our dessert: Raspberry and Dark Chocolate Calzone - 7 Eurobodalla Culinary Delights That Should Not to Be Missed - The Trusted Traveller

But what really made it one of the best pizzerias we’ve eaten at, was the Calzone Dolce. We are dessert people so finishing our already excellent meal off with a delicious dark chocolate and raspberry filled calzone served with creamy vanilla ice cream, really topped off a great experience for us.

What We Ate:  Starter: Garlic Pizza Crust with Rosemary and Sea Salt | Mains: BBQ Chicken Pizza and Em’s Pizza | Dessert: Raspberry and Dark Chocolate Calzone.

“The” place to go for breakfast in Batemans Bay is the Starfish Deli. Like Sam’s they are located right on the waterfront with inside and outside seating that takes in the beautiful views of the Clyde River.

Their breakfast menu has everything you’d expect with a few unique items to give it the edge over it’s competitors. Our meal and coffee’s were perfectly presented and tasted delicious, so much so that we wished we’d been in the area long enough to go back and try some of the other menu items or even stop by for lunch or dinner.

The service too was exceptional and we had a lovely chat to one of the waitstaff who offered us suggestions on things we could see and do in the area. And every time we walked past during our time in Batemans Bay the place was busy, which to us is a sure sign of good restaurant.

What We Ate: Mushroom Bruschetta with a side of bacon and Eggs ‘Benny’.

Do a Google search for the best fish and chips on the New South Wales South Coast and the Innes’ Boatshed, right on the waterfront at Batemans Bay, will be one of the top results.

There are dozens of similar take-away’s along the Eurodoballa coast and we tried a few, but Innes’ always came out on top for us. Their seafood is as fresh as you can get with trawlers bringing in new catches each morning right to their very own wharf.

I’m not usually a fan of battered fish as I find it too heavy, but their batter is so light and crisp, almost like a protective film over the fish helping to keep it juicy. And enjoying their culinary delights sitting on their back deck overlooking the water and pelicans didn’t do any harm either.

What We Ate: Battered Fish of the Day with Chips and Salad plus a Prawn Skewer.

More Information: Innes’ Boatshed is located at 1 Clyde St right on the waterfront in the heart of town.


Sage Farmers Market, Moruya

Sage Farmers Market

Sage Farmers Market isn’t just your everyday run of the mill food market. It’s main purpose is to provide a marketplace for locals and visitors to the region to access locally grown or harvested food direct from the producers. And one of the main criteria for stallholders is that their produce must be from within 160 km of Moruya.

The market is held every Tuesday afternoon and you can even pre-shop online for collection on the day. Some of the things we saw (and bought) for sale during our visit were fresh seafood and meats, cheese and other dairy products, an abundance of fresh produce all in season, olives, chutneys and sauces, eggs and fresh honey.

It gets pretty busy there and some of the vendors sell out quick so our top tip is to get there just before they open, say around 2:45pm and have a browse before sales start. Once the bell that signifies the official start of the market rings, you’ll already know what you want to buy.

What We Ate: We purchased flathead fillets from a fishmonger; potatoes and lemons to make lemon potatoes and lettuce, red cabbage, capsicum to make a salad from the green grocer; and a lemon tart to share for dessert.

The New South Wales South Coast is famous for it’s dairy with one of the countries biggest producers of cheese, Bega, located there. And while we enjoy Bega cheese, we are much more boutique style cheese people. And that’s exactly what the Bodalla Dairy Cheese Factory is.

The call themselves artisan cheese makers which means the cheeses are all hand-made, in small batches, with traditional old-fashioned methods. And I must say after visiting a few cheese places recently, you can really taste the different between the mass produced stuff and the cheeses made at Bodalla.

Onsite you can visit the factory where you can peak through glass windows and watch the cheese makers at work There’s a small education centre there also where you can learn about the cheese making process and their business. Next door in the Bodalla Dairy Shed is where the fun begins, you get to taste the cheese.

On our visit they had about 10 cheeses out for tasting and of course because we are good travel bloggers, we tasted them all for you so we could report back how nice they all were (someone’s gotta do it right!). They also have a cafe onsite where you can get cakes, burgers and irresistible milkshakes made with Bodalla Dairy Milk. All of this can be enjoyed on their back deck overlooking the green countryside.

What We Ate: Cheese tastings and a Chocolate Thick Shake.

We wanted to splash out on a fancy meal on the South Coast because, as I mentioned earlier, so many of the world best chefs are setting themselves up there. After looking around at the menus of each of the best restaurants we settled on The Whale in Narooma because of ex pro-surfer turned chef, Matthew Hore’s, philosophy.

He has a preference for local ingredients and simple clean flavours and has a created an intriguing menu, that I read, regularly changes depending on the availability of local produce. Matthew sources his meat from the butcher next door, seafood from his mate the fisherman and fresh produce from their very own whale garden along with foraged items here and there.

Our three course meal was nothing short of delicious with well matched flavours and produce that tasted so incredibly fresh. They also have a pretty decent wine list and good selection of beers on tap. And then there’s the view, a million dollar view as we heard many call it while in Narooma. With the sun setting over the town and water, it was a perfect view for an almost perfect evening.

What We Ate: Entree: Natural Wogonga Inlet Rock Oysters, half with Lemon Gel and half with Smokey Bacon and Worcestershire Sauce | Main: Crispy Sous Vide Port Shoulder and Crispy Lamb Shoulder | Dessert: Crème Caramel and House Made Lindt Bitter Sweet Chocolate Ice Cream.
