Royal National Park - Wollongong - Kiama - Jervis Bay

The Grand Pacific Drive is one of Australia's most spectacular driving routes. Starting from The Royal National Park south of Sydney, this route takes you through rainforests and seaside villages as you follow the exquisite coastline.

Traversing the iconic 665 metre Sea Cliff Bridge, The Grand Pacific Drive then makes its way into the beautiful city of Wollongong, offering an abundance of adventure activities, great beaches and shopping, fantastic local restaurants and cafes, golf courses, art and culture and much more.

Discover the beautiful Kiama region and its famous blowhole, magnificent coastal walks, beautiful rainforest trails and pristine beaches. You’ll find many wonderful attractions and activities, such as Australia’s highest zip-line and kayaking on the Kangaroo River.

From the majestic coastline to the green hinterland, the Shoalhaven region of NSW is a popular holiday destination with magnificent beaches, spectacular national parks and memorable animal encounters.
