Morton National Park is one of the largest parks in NSW and takes up a fair area of the Southern Highlands. Last time we visited the park we drove in near Ulladulla and visited the amazing Granite Falls and George Boyd Lookout. In this occasion we went to the magnificent Fitzroy Falls and Twin Falls. The gorge with the sandstone cliffs are stunning and the walks are well maintained and interesting. Can’t wait to explore another section at a later date.

Almost no one in the beach. It was wonderful. Miles and miles of clean sand, and just a fabulous walk. The reflections in the water as the waves receded was delightful. Lots of shells but sadly ‘pippies’ are now poisonous. What are we doing to our world. I used to eat these when I was a kid!

This is an extensive Commonwealth national park. Entrance fees apply that can be purchased at booth at entrance, or on line to save waiting as have separate priority drive through lane (recommended if visiting at holiday and other busy times). Suggest research beforehand as multiple beaches, gardens, walks and attractions within the park. In a most of the day visit we took in 3 of the 9 beaches, visited the ruins of Cape St George lighthouse, views from Governor Head and Stony Creek, plus the 5 km Munyunga Waraga Dhugen loop trail. Is a mix of bitumen sealed and unsealed roads throughout, but all suitable for 2WD. Now I know about this gem, will return to explore it a bit more.

This is a gem of an area along the NSW south coast. Many beaches and well defined trails through coastal bushland. All mostly free to enter. Includes rocky outcrops, sandy beaches, picnic areas, Jervis Bay views, plus extensive birdlife and occasional whale spotting in season. Good for all ages either solo, as couples, or families with kids. A host of nearby accommodation, food and retail.

We took a break off the Pacific Highway as we were heading south. taking the turn into Lake Conjola. Is a butumen road (Lake Conjola Entrance Rd) , around 7 kilometres to the end. Nice views along the way. At the end of the road, is public access through the caravan park to boat ramp where road finishes. There are toilets here and a well formed ramp to lookouts and beach access. Can return same way or do the walk we did north along the beach, and back around the lagoon. All up about 2.5km over 45 minutes with plenty of stops to enjoy the scenery.
