Things to Do  

Moving into the future

Moving into the future, Huskisson

 iandsmith Says:  You may well ask what the Duke of Wellington and the Liverpool to Manchester railway has to do with this town, so far removed from either. It so happens that the village was named after William Huskisson, secretary of the colonies and House of Commons leader for two years... 

The Green Bay experience

The Green Bay experience, Huskisson

 iandsmith Says:  To get to Green Bay you first have to negotiate the National Parks and Wildlife entry. That will set you back around $10 for 48 hours.What you get for your fee is access to a lot of areas, including the historic lighthouse and several other interesting scenic spots.There's... 

Second hand lighthouse

Second hand lighthouse, Huskisson

 iandsmith Says:  The historical lighthouse on the southern headland is interesting. It was decided to build one after many shipwrecks.Trouble was, no-one could quite work out where it was supposed to be according to the vague instructions. Eventually they decided to build it here but other...

Only rocks

Only rocks, Huskisson

 martin_nl Says:  If you continue walking on the beach, it suddenly vanishes and you're just walking on a rocky surface. No rock hopping here, so after a while we returned to the car to drive to our next destination. 

Picturesque tree

Picturesque tree, Huskisson

 martin_nl Says:   This is the tree I climbed on that you can see in the intro. It looks so perfect on this beach. I really had the feeling of being on a deserted island. It was so peaceful and quiet here. Of course it wasn't deserted completely, but at least I was an an island, a very big... 

Don't let the wind blow you away

Don't let the wind blow you away, Huskisson

 martin_nl Says:  The day we were in Jervis Bay, the wind was blowing really hard. The sand sometimes even blew in our faces. If you wanted to sit on the beach, you're towel would be covered with sand in just a few minutes. Luckily if you moved closer to the trees, there are some patches with... 

Rock hopping

Rock hopping, Huskisson

 martin_nl Says:   Of course you can just walk along the beach, by walking on the sand, but what is the fun in that. You can do that on every beach. I always think it's more fun to hop from rock to rock. Splendid fun!! 

No swimming to reach the beach on the other side

No swimming to reach the beach on the other side, Huskisson

 martin_nl Says:  You don't have to swim to get to a beach if you go to the other side from the Scenic Lookout , so that is what we did. The beaches are a bit rocky here, but there is beautiful white sand on them, so the beach is perfect for sunbathing and other fun. 

The biggest part of the bay

The biggest part of the bay, Huskisson

 martin_nl Says:  When you look a little bit further you can see all of this. A huge white sandy beach that strectches for miles and miles. This part of the Bay is part of Booderee National Park. However if you want to reach the beach you have to swim for a little bit. 

Jervis Bay, an amazing place

Jervis Bay, an amazing place, Huskisson

 martin_nl Says:  If you park you car in Huskisson at the Scenic Lookout you have parked almost right on the beach, with which I mean that it is only a few metres to the beach. We didn't really know what to expect, but the more exciting it was. This was the first view we had.
