Batemans Bay at a glance

Batemans Bay sits where the Clyde River meets the sea on the NSW South Coast. It is a base for beaches, estuary activities, coastal walks, seafood and nearby protected areas.

Country and waterways

Eurobodalla Council recognises the Yuin people as Traditional Custodians of the land and waterways. Local Walbunja cultural context is important when exploring the coast. See the Eurobodalla Council Aboriginal culture page (opens in a new tab) for respectful local context.

Coast and outdoor time

Explore the Clyde River estuary, local beaches and the Batemans Bay coastal headlands. Visit NSW describes beaches, paddling, snorkelling, cycling and walking options. Eurobodalla Council records the Munjip trail cultural collaboration and access improvements.

Plan and stay safe

Before visiting beaches, waterways or parks, check current local conditions, alerts, closures and weather. Follow signs, use appropriate equipment, carry water and do not assume an activity or operator is available.
