Great tour of Montague Island (Barunguba). Great views from the lighthouse. We swam with the seals before our Island tour booked though Narooma Charters.

It it really an undiscovered place! (well, compare to Sydney city I would say that) I went 21-23 Feb and didn't see much people around. With less tourists comes cleaner water and a more natural environment. The snorkeling with seals tour is more than amazing and I highly recommend all the adventurers to try that.
YouHui X — Google review
The island across from Narooma is small and does have limited accommodation upon it. We visited as part of a tour but did not utilise the accommodation. The volunteer guide - "Debbie" was very informative and helpful and helped us around the island. Birds galore nesting upon the island were extremely noisy and made it hard to hear each other at times. In saying that it was lovely to see such an ecological system in play. Great history involved in the island. Glad to have visited.
Dan D — Google review
My first time to visit a Bird Territory. The island keeper Peter is a nice guy. Snorkeling with seals is the best part of our holiday.
Rocky S — Google review
NPWS tour was fantastic. Really interesting history both for Indigenous people and European settlers. The ongoing conservation here is a huge job, well worth a visit to appreciate it. I would suggest a reasonable level of fitness to get the most out of the tour.

Snorkel with seal is the best activity in this island! Super beautiful island. Very protected natural reserve park!
Kandrew L — Google review
Montague Island is a heritage place, and must visit place if you are in Narooma. It has a great history and if you go in breeding season then you will find lots of nesting birds on the island. It is a guided tour and guides are very knowledgeable. we booked through Montague Island Adventures, very good experience with them.

A magical experience!!! Everyone should snorkel or scuba with the seals! There were hundreds of playful seals, giant bull rays, schools of fish and baby port Jackson sharks

Slide 1 of 8
It actually looks like the Australian Map. You can cross the rock from the left corner when it’s low tide. Few more walks through the rock-walk, you will reach to the Seals Rock where you will encounter lazy seals sleeping or lying on the rocks. They look so cute though. But do not feed them and make that area dirty. Please keep the area clean.
Nayemul I — Google review
Such a beautiful and unique natural landmark! The rock really does look like the shape of Australia 🇦🇺It is incredible to see in person. Perfect spot for photos, especially during sunrise or sunset when the light hits the ocean. The coastal walk around the area is peaceful, and you can often spot seals nearby too. Definitely worth a stop if you’re visiting Narooma!
AERIN — Google review
Sunrise here put me in a state of trance. Absolutely tranquil sights and stunning views, the rock is really cool and unique - can see why it’s got the name. Strongly recommend coming here during sunrise for breath taking start to the day.
Aqtp — Google review
A great spot to stop for a little break or if you're wanting a short scenic walk. There is parking right at the top near a lookout, then you can take the stairs down to Australia rock. You can also park at the washrooms and walk up the hill to get to the rock and lookout.
Meredith M — Google review
It's a great spot for photography. The rock itself is amazing, naturally shaped like the map. Beautiful landscapes with cute seal.
Sanisha M — Google review
Breathtaking views and fresh, invigorating air make this a truly refreshing place to visit. Watching seals play is an absolute delight, and the stunning Bar Rock formations are a must-see. The unique rock formations are simply amazing. Highly recommended!
Tanzir A — Google review
Came here to see seals and it was pretty cool to see. Came here early in the morning and under roughly 15-20 seals. Most of them were kind of sleeping on the rocks some of them were swimming. A few of them were far up enough on the rocks that they felt pretty close to you. A highly recommended stop if you’re around here.
Allen L — Google review
Australian Rock is named by the aperture in the rock, which resembles Map of Australia. It's a good and beautiful place to visit. Seaside view is fascinating. Seals are also found on the rocks, mostly sleeping when i reached. One much take precaution, not to disturb them. They may be dangerous. Especially take care of kids. Parking area is very small. No tickets are required to visit this site

Sally and her team are wonderful. You can have a delicious coffee, croissants and the best cinnamon bun, while getting great advice on exactly what to do and see here. We came for the oyster festival, which was a fantastic experience. However our bike tour, visiting the seals at Australia Rock just blew us away. Sally’s enthusiasm for all the gastronomy in the area and incredible wildlife. Had us wanting to move here. Don’t miss the light house museum , Tilba ,The Quaterdeck and the Oyster farmer’s daughter ❤️

We went to Narooma last month to take pictures of seals. We popped through the visitors centre to get some information on where to find them. The two ladies there were lovely and very helpful. They gave us a map and circled the best spots to see seals and large black stingrays. They have a nice selection of gifts so definitely go there when you get to this amazing city!

The very friendly staff at Narooma Visitor Center were wonderful. We have been travelling for four months and actually didn't stay at Narooma but we had to stop here just to ride your wonderful bike way along the coastline. Thank you Narooma for your friendly staff and great bike ways.

The staff were extremely friendly! We didn't know a thing about Narooma when we walked in and if we didn't stop we would have never gone to see the seals or happened across some AMAZING stingrays.

Really nice beach with safety nets and lots of parking in various spots. Can see seals and sometimes dolphins from here. In December 2021, we were lucky enough to see a dolphin and her calf.

Such a great family beach with parking close by. Shower is near and the shark net is handy. Waves are not big which is ideal for little kids.

Clear water, gentle wave, good place for snorkeling,especiallyclose to the head of breakwater, surprisingly great, lots of fish, stingrays, also saw a Monta (we believed so) and a port Jackson shark!
Johnny W — Google review
Excellent beach for family, surprisingly not overcrowded. Calm and clear waters fenced for safety. Cleanup showers, clean toilets, BBQ in adjacent park with 2 covered/shaded benches and few other open seating areas and lots of parking available. Don't miss this place if you are in narooma and are after peaceful afternoon with your kids.
Nitin G — Google review
Stunning beach to bring the kids! Fabulous fenced off area to keep the little ones contained, lovely beach, public toilets and ample car parking surrounding. Main thing is the water. Lovely and warm in summer and crystal clean green / blue color. Just stunning! A strong recommend from me!
Michael M — Google review
This is a beautiful spot where the snorkelling is really good when the swells are down, and fascinating to watch along the breakwater when the swells are big (boats go down in big swells apparently). I have seen a large variety of fish and ray species with the snorkel and look forward to coming back here with my boys (who can be enclosed in the safe part of the beach).

A cute little park right near some great eateries. We bought food and sat at the park to eat it. the waters are shallow for about 20m so its great for kids or fishing or boating. The water is also quite warm in the summer. Lots of little sea creatures including fish and starfish can be spotted among the reeds.

Beautiful park at dusk, at low tide you can see the hermit crabs in their thousands walk around. Some bbq and picnic facilities and toilets as well

Perfect place to picnic with the family and young children. The toilets are across the road are clean and the park is well kept. The children had a good time here.
Roman G — Google review
If you're visiting Narooma there's worse things to do than grab some fish n chips from nearby, plonk your butt at the tables, pour a glass of vino and watch the sun go down over the fabulous Wagonga Inlet. If you have young children there's plenty to amuse them. Toilet facilities available. Perfectly located park, quite busy over Summer.

Bryan S — Google review
(Translated by Google) Anglers here will like the facilities for processing the fish they catch. But we liked more the fact that seals like to come by here to pick up leftovers from gutting the fish. And even though they are of course wild animals, they were already quite used to people. (Original) Anglern werden hier die Einrichtungen zum Bearbeiten der gefangenen Fische gefallen. Uns gefiel aber mehr die Tatsache, dass hier gerne mal Seehunde vorbeikommen, um Reste vom Ausnehmen der Fische abzugreifen. Und auch wenn das natürlich wild lebende Tiere sind, waren die an Menschen schon recht gewöhnt.

Beautiful spot this is exactly where we had lunch after riding our bikes from Dalmeny also a beautiful spot. The fully paved shared footpath follows the coast all the way so plenty to see. I think it's about 7 or 8 kilometers with a few hills thrown in to get the blood pumping. You have to use the boardwalk and bridge to get into Narrooma township just follow your nose you'll love it we do this ride at least once a fortnight. 😊

1. BBQ 2. Kids playing in the playground (safe enough because of the fench) 3. Wonderful sea view 4. Nearby the australian rock where you can see the seals. If you drive along the east coast, this is one of the place that you want to stop by.
