Things To Do At Jervis Bay – Without Kids

Honeymoon Bay

Honeymoon Bay is a small but delightful horseshoe-shaped bay with beach on the north side of Jervis Bay. It is a wonderful place to swim, picnic, kayak and play.

Honeymoon Bay is within the Beecroft Weapons Range and Peninsula, a Dept of Defence area where living firing is done at times. To check that Honeymoon Bay is open visit the Facebook page here to make sure you are allowed to enter ie that there is no live firing going on.

Currarong Village + Rock Pool

After Honeymoon Bay or even separately, the village of Currarong is a lovely little old fishing village.

The main attraction is the gorgeous natural rock pool, with Abrahams Bosom Beach beyond it and lovely walks of various lengths around the Beecroft Peninsula.
