Batemans Bay has something for everyone. Just two hours from Canberra and roughly four hours south of Sydney, it’s a great introduction to water-based activities thanks to the easily navigable estuaries in the Clyde River. It’s also a popular holiday resort town and fishing destination for those looking for fun in the great outdoors. The surrounding national parks and mountains make for great hiking and walking opportunities, and photographers will especially love the Clyde Valley. Dozens of beaches with shallow waters make swimming safe, and Batemans Bay is famous for its excellent fishing all year round.
Just 10 minutes from the town centre is a holidaymaker’s paradise – The Moorings Resort at Tomakin. The Moorings offers a number of luxurious holiday apartments available for rent and timeshare, and caters to guests of all ages and interests.
A temperate climate all year round means the beaches are relaxing and safe for swimming, and an indoor heated pool, full-size tennis court under lights, BBQ grills, games lounge, children's play area
an onsite 9 hole golf course and you can even hire a boat. Resort guests can play a full 9 holes plus club hire for just $10 per person. Or why not take a boat out on the water, for just $25 for a half day you can hire a 14ft boat to carry up to 6 people. With all these activities at hand you’ll have everything you’ll ever need and more while staying on NSW’s South Coast. Other activities including whale watching, fishing, snorkelling, golf and horseriding can also be organised for you.
A stay at The Moorings is a great chance to sample the regional produce. Don’t miss the Clyde River oysters, which, coming from some of the cleanest waters on the planet, are often hailed by connoisseurs as the best oysters in the world. It’s also worth visiting the historic village of Tilba to enjoy local wine, cheese and venison.
ALL KINDS OF TIME: From family time on the beach to time alone with a fishing rod, The Moorings water flanked setting is perfect for all things aquatic. Families are well catered for with mini-golf, jetties for fishing, a games lounge, childrens play area and boardwalks for afternoon strolls.
