In the spotlight

Merimbula

Merimbula’s attraction lies in its rich natural beauty of sea, sand and bush.

In this coastal township, outdoor activities reign supreme, from paddleboarding on Merimbula Lake to surfing and swimming at Main and Bar Beaches.

The annual Eat Festival is an excellent way to sample the region’s culinary delights, while Dulcie’s is the spot for a burger, beer or cocktail.
