On the spectacular Grand Pacific Drive , visitors can stroll along beautiful beaches around Wollongong, Shellharbour and Kiama.

In this stretch the possibilities are diverse and the traveler passes through the white sands and meets the dolphins of Jervis Bay (Jervis Bay), passes through the beautiful region of Eurobodalla and enjoys the beauty of the sparkling Sapphire Coast.
