Situated on a bay of the same name in Australia’s New South Wales region, just 210 kilometres from Sydney, Nelson Bay is a picturesque resort town boasting an interesting history and an abundance of things to do. The diving and snorkelling opportunities off the coast are remarkable - with prolific marine life teeming in the colourful reefs. The ‘Looking Glass’, a split through Fly Point promontory, offers a unique diving location. History enthusiasts can explore the Inner Lighthouse on Nelson Head, dating back to 1872, and offering historic displays, films, and a tea room, as well as panoramic views. Activities in the area include dining at one of the excellent restaurants on the quay, whale and dolphin spotting, golf, exploring scenic cycling trails, and many others.
