Nowra South Coast NSW

Both Nowra and Bomaderry are historic towns in the Shoalhaven region of New South Wales. Near here are stunning beaches and scenic national parks, easily accessible and likely to give visitors lifelong memories.

The Shoalhaven River, on the right in the photo, is popular for boating and fishing. In fact, all along the coast here, the fishing is great. Another way to explore this part of the South Coast is to take a cruise on the river itself.

On the Princes Highway from Sydney, Nowra and Bomaderry have developed into an important junction on the Shoalhaven River. Acting as the administrative and commercial centre for Shoalhaven City, it has thrived with the growth of the timber and dairy industries in the region.

Meroogal House Nowra

For a fascinating view of life of the settlers can be experienced by visiting Meroogal, run by the Historical Houses Trust of NSW. A family of women lived here for four generations.

The house is known for its architecture and gardens, but the women that lived here have left their mark. Exploring the layers of time from the domestic duties they performed, to the pursuit of their many and varied interests through the years by the successive generations, the house is well worthy of a visit.
