South Coast from Sydney: Sea Cliffs, Blowhole and Dolphins!

Last updated on August 3, 2016 by Claire / this article contains affiliate links (Info)

If you are spending some holidays in Sydney, why not get out of the city and discover the South Coast of NSW. I did a 10 day tour with my parents in 2008 and loved it. This time I did not have that much time and booked a day tour stopping at some highlights of the South Coast.

Second stop: Kiama’s Blow hole

After our morning tea at the View point of the Sea Cliff Bridge, we drove to Kiama to adimire the Blow hole. When we arrived it was not blowing at hole. I just admired the volcanic formation. But after a while it started blowing and it was impressive! However I have not been able to photograph it properly.

Hayes Beach and its white sand

After this great cruise, I was on a cloud. We had a brief stop at Hyams beach which is supposed to have the whitest sand in the world. I am not sure it is the whitest but it is very white.

I wanted to swim but when I saw the waves I decided against it.

See how the Jervis Bay closes in almost a circle.

Fitzroy Waterfall

Last stop after we drove through Kangaroo valley was the Fitzroy Waterfall. Not much water but a great view although it looks a lot like the blue mountains.
