South Coast NSW Accommodation - Location Map & Directions
Directions from Sydney
There are two ways of getting to the south coast of NSW from Sydney: the scenic route via the Grand Pacific Drive, or the faster, still scenic, but not so drop dead amazing as the Grand Pacific Drive.
The freeway: Take the Princes Highway out of Sydney, following signs to Wollongong. Just after Sutherland, the Princes Highway turns into the F6 freeway (speed limit 110km/hr). This freeway takes you past Wollongong to around Shellharbour, where it turns into the Princes Highway again. Voila! You've hit the south coast.
Grand Pacific Drive: Take the Princes Highway out of Sydney. At Loftus take a left of the Highway into the Royal National Park (Tourist Drive 10). Drive through the magnificent Royal National Park (the world's second oldest). Stop at Audley and hire a row boat on the Port Hacking River. Or visit the beautiful beaches of Wattamolla, Garie or Bundeena. Drop in at the Hindu Temple at Helensburgh or the native animal Symbio Wildlife Gardens.
Continue driving to Otford and Bald Hill, for a spectacular view down the coast to Wollongong. Stop at Bald Hill to watch the hang gliders and para gliders (take a turn yourself). Then wind down the hill past Stanwell Park along Lawrence Hargrave Drive. Traverse the magnificent 665metre over-the-ocean Sea Cliff Bridge between Coalcliff and Clifton. Continue your journey into the busting township of Thirroul.
