Spanning 47km of dramatic coastline near @visiteden, #BeowaNationalPark is like nature writ large. 😯 For a taste of this spectacular landscape, step out on the #Pinnacles loop walking track, a gentle 1.1km trail through forest and coastal heathland. The striking erosion feature was created some 65 million years ago during the Tertiary geological period, when the extinction of the dinosaurs had just begun! 🦕 Photos by @destination_nsw (drone images taken with permission from NPWS) #SapphireCoastNSW #YuinCountry #sapphirecoast #feelnsw #nswparks #newsouthwales #seeaustralia #ig_australia #australiagram #stayandwander #fromwhereidrone #voyaged #abcaustralia @visitnsw @australia

Autumn is prime time on the #SapphireCoastNSW! 😍 Beautiful fresh mornings, plenty of sunshine and often stunning clarity in our rivers and estuaries. 💦 It's also the best time of year for @sapphirecoastoysters 🦪 with abundant supply and great quality along our coast.

Wonderfully wild Middle Beach in @visitmerimbula is the perfect place for a secluded beach stroll as the sun comes up. 🙌 Just a stone's throw from #Merimbula town, Middle Beach is hidden beneath the base of a forested slope and spectacular colourful cliffs known to some as 'Rainbow Rock'. 🌈 Beautiful for swimming in calm conditions, however is subject to strong tides and swell so take care.

Have you heard of @visiteden's historic Thompson's Point Baths? 😯 Almost invisible from sea level, this lovely #pool used to be a popular #swimming spot from the early 1900s through to the 1960s! It's Eden's oldest ocean pool and the southernmost #OceanPool in NSW! 💦 In its heyday, Thompson's Point Baths was deeper and had an access bridge. Please note that the pool is now only accessible at low tide around the rocks from #EdenWharf, and its shallow depth means it's not generally suitable for swimming, but it remains an awesome piece of history!

Summer cove dreams at #KianinnyBay in @visittathra. 💦 ☺️ Kianinny is home to a family of resident #stingrays that cruise the sandy bottom fossicking for a tasty snack (like crabs, sea snails and molluscs). 🦀 Head up to Chamberlain lookout for great views of this stunning #inlet, or stretch your legs along a section of the Kangarutha walking track in #BourndaNationalPark.

Beautiful Bermi. 💙 #Bermagui hugs the edge of its stunning harbour and is situated under the shadow of #Gulaga, once an active volcano 60 million years ago. 😯 Plunge into the opaline waters of #BermaguiBluePool, explore the nearby national parks and enjoy some of the creature comforts (we're thinking @honorbread) that Bermi village has to offer. 👌 Photo by @nicholasjhills #SapphireCoastNSW #YuinCountry #feelnsw #newsouthwales #ig_australia #australiagram #seeaustralia #holidayherethisyear #fromwhereidrone #voyaged #stayandwander #sapphirecoast @visitnsw @australia

Our beloved @barbeachkiosk is back open for spring, summer and beyond! 😍 A #Merimbula institution, this beachside #kiosk is a cute, timber beach shed perched above gorgeous Bar Beach.

The mighty Bryde's whale! 🐋 The #HumpbackHighway is in full swing along the #SapphireCoastNSW, but alongside the humpbacks, there have also been sightings of the more reclusive species of the #BrydesWhale. 😯 The movements of Bryde's #whales remain mysterious, but it seems they've heard about the good tucker available on the #SapphireCoast!

Snowcapped mountains 🏔️ and #Whales! 🐋 Nope, we're not making this up. 😱 A cold snap on Sunday morning delivered a fresh blanket of snow to our highest peaks, as a beautiful #HumpbackWhale cruised south along the #SapphireCoastNSW on its journey to Antarctica. 💙 Thanks @davey_rogers for capturing this remarkable image on board @sapphirecoastaladventures.

BEOWA NATIONAL PARK. 💙 #BenBoydNationalPark has officially been renamed #BeowaNationalPark, meaning ‘orca’ or ‘killer whale’ in #Thaua language recognising the Aboriginal cultural heritage of the area. The name #Beowa celebrates the important connection between the park’s coastline and the spiritual lives of its first inhabitants, as well as their beliefs and cultural practices associated with the ocean, in particular orcas. The new name for the park was chosen through an extensive consultation process with more than 60 representatives from the Aboriginal and South Sea Islander community. Pronounced: "Bee-oh-ah" Find out more via the link in our IG stories.

Step into the green room at #GoodeniaRainforest. 🌱 🙌 Located inland of @visitmerimbula in #SouthEastForestsNationalPark, the rainforest is home to many species of birds, moss and fungi. 🍄 Listen out for the call of the lyrebird, a native bird with the ability to imitate almost any sound. The forest is particularly beautiful after rain, bringing the lush surroundings to life. Best accessed by 4WD.

The wild landscapes of the #SapphireCoastNSW are breathtaking. 😯 The headland #Murunna north of #Bermagui is a sacred site for the Yuin people, and corroborees were held on top of the headland for thousands of years. A formation in the cliff behind the sea stack looks like a woman’s head. The Yuin people believed that this woman warns people to stay away from the water, which can have a dangerous rip. European settlers named the sea stack #CamelRock some time in the late 19th century.

Exploring the serene #Bermagui River with @navigateexpeditions. 🙌 Paddling in the early morning, the only sounds you’ll hear are the swoosh of your oar in the water and the flutter of cormorant and heron wings – all manner of birds descend to forage in mangroves and sun themselves in trees. Pack your swimsuit, as a mid #kayak dip is a must! 💦 Photos by @destination_nsw #SapphireCoastNSW #YuinCountry #feelnsw #newsouthwales #seeaustralia #ig_australia #sapphirecoast #voyaged #fromwhereidrone #stayandwander #australiagram @visitnsw @australia

Stepping onto the magnificent Green Cape headland is like stepping back in time. Built as a guiding light in 1881-83, #GreenCapeLighthouse is steeped in seafaring history.

You can spot whales from the cliffs, 🐋 enjoy a picnic on the grassy headland or step out on a section of the #LightToLightWalk. 👌 Photo by @rosa_oconnor #SapphireCoastNSW #feelnsw #newsouthwales #seeaustralia #ig_australia #holidayherethisyear #nswparks #earthpix #sapphirecoast #voyaged @visitnsw @australia

Mother and bub southern right whales on the #SapphireCoastNSW. 🥰 Endangered #SouthernRightWhales are usually the first to get here, arriving in winter and resting behind the breakers on #SapphireCoast beaches. They are easily recognisable by their smooth back (no dorsal fin), white markings (callosities) and bulky shape. 🐳 Their callosity patterns are unique to each individual, and can be used like a fingerprint for scientists to track their migratory patterns, much of which still remains mysterious. There are only approximately 300 southern right #whales in the south east Australian population. 💙 Video by @one_full_belly #feelnsw #newsouthwales #seeaustralia #ig_australia #australiagram #whalesnation #earthpix #earth #voyaged #ourplanetdaily #ausgeo #merimbula @visitnsw @australia

Some swim-spiration at #Bermagui Blue Pool for your spring bucket list! 🙌 If you're looking for spring ideas on the #SapphireCoastNSW, we'd recommend a roadtrip along the stunning coast between Bermagui and @visittathra.

The magical waters of #PambulaRiverMouth. 🙌 Did you know that some of the best-preserved mounded middens in @australia are located along #Pambula River, containing the shells of oysters and mussels collected by Aboriginal people more than 4000 years ago? 🦪 These middens range in size from approximately 1m high to the size of a football field. 😯 #SeversBeach and the surrounding area have been traditionally used as ceremonial and camping grounds and is a particularly significant place for women. This area forms part of the pathways and linkages between the mountains - Balawan, Biamanga and Gulaga. ⛰️ Photo by @johndean_ #YuinCountry #SapphireCoastNSW #SapphireCoast #feelnsw #newsouthwales #seeaustralia #holidayherethisyear #ig_australia #earthpix #nswparks #fromwhereidrone #australiagram #earth #voyaged #stayandwander @visitnsw @australia
