Beaches to Visit

Hyams Beach

The small and secluded village of Hyams Beach in Jervis Bay is renowned for its pristine, powdery white sand which is so fine it ‘squeaks’. Here crystal clear waters lap onto the white sandy shore, fringed by dramatic National Park bushland which can best be described as paradise. Scenic bush and coastal walks allow you to take in breathtaking views of the bay and surrounding National Park and the clear waters are ideal for fishing, swimming, snorkelling and diving. The surrounding bushland is home to many native animals and an abundance of bird life. The Hyams Beach General Store and Cafe provides most of the immediate needs of the short term visitor, serving delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere.

Murrays Beach

Known as the jewel in the Booderee National Park, Murrays Beach offers swimmers and snorkelers alike, pristine clear waters and pearly white sand. Perfect for families, Murrays Beach is situated in a protected bay which is sheltered by Bowen Island. Accessed via Jervis Bay Road through Booderee National Park, there are many self-guided walks around Murrays Beach from which to explore. From the Munyunga waraga dhugan (loop walk) to the various low tide walks, you are sure to leave with breathtaking views and sightings of Booderee’s plants, animals, culture and history. Car parking is in a large car park with a short walk to the beach via a bush track. Entry fees apply to all areas of Booderee National Park.

Nelsons Beach

Nelson is one of the quieter beaches in Jervis Bay’s White Sands Coast. It is a dog friendly beach. Dogs are allowed off the lead from 4.30pm to 8.30am. It has spectacular white sand and often has enough room to spread out with the family, as well as gentle waves for swimming and paddling. The beach runs from Plantation Point reserve in the north to Blenheim Beach in the south. Walkers can head north to Huskisson on the Round the Bay Walk, a wide, sealed, shared pathway, or continue south to Greenfield and Jervis Bay National Park on the White Sands Walk.

Greenfields Beach

Set amongst the picturesque setting of the Jervis Bay National Park, Greenfield Beach offers much more than crystal clear waters and soft white sands. It grassy foreshore and surrounding walking tracks are the perfect location for a beach side barbecue, bird watching and spotting white bellied sea eagles and dolphins. It’s named after Colin Greenfield who lived in the area from 1942 until the 1970s, lucky fellow! The picnic area has free electric barbecue, clean drinking water, cold showers, flush toilets, sheltered eating areas, and wheelchair access. Take a walk along one of the two walking tracks and discover an abundance of wildlife.
