A lovrly boardwalk right next to the beach for either walking or riding your bike. Also is close to Reflections Caravan Park which in my opinion is the best CP in Eden.

We visited the museum on a windy, cooler day and it was the perfect experience for bad beach weather! Adults and kids alike will be entertained for a couple of hours here, even with covid restrictions closing some minor sections & viewing telescopes. The museum is well set out, despite being small, and the gift shop is well organised. Hubby and I read every single signboard and these gave us such a deeper understanding of the whaling industry in Eden and of the local locations we had visited the previous day. Excellent covid-safe provisions and clean public toilets. Views from the top floor and outside are beautiful.

A great spot for stunning views across Wonboyn Beach or quiet contemplation. Tip: visit on the way back from Green Cape so you don’t have to turn across traffic! Highly recommended.
6. Green Cape Lighthouse

Reviewed By 4_Aussies_inOz - Sydney, Australia
This was our first stop on a day trip from Eden, visiting the main local highlights by car. An easy, albeit slow, drive to the lighthouse was met with a good-sized car park and well preserved site. We took time to walk around the lighthouse, out onto Green Cape and then out and around Ly-we-moon Cemetery. This is a place to take some pretty stunning photographs - the lighthouse is quite immense, the coastline is rugged and spectacular... lots of coastal plants & wildlife too! Don’t forget to stop at City Rock and Disaster Bay Lookout - but be prepared for some real 4WD conditions to access these two locations!
7. Ben Boyd National Park

Reviewed By TheDoor_isopen - Tuggeranong, Australia
This park covers 45 kms of rugged coastline. It encompasses a number of attractions - walks, buildings such at Boyd’s Tower and the remains of Davidson Whaling Station and Boydtown, picnic spots, camping grounds and remote beaches. It’s best to visit an information centre such as the one in Eden or Merimbula to fully comprehend what’s on offer here. There’s a lot. They’ll provide maps and directions on how to make the most of the scenery and activities.
