Welcome to the Grand Pacific Drive

One drive. One Ocean. Endless Experiences

Grand Pacific Drive is a 140 kilometre scenic coastal drive taking you through lush rainforests starting in the Royal National Park, over the Sea Cliff Bridge and through the coastal townships of Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama and the Shoalhaven region, on the stunning South Coast of New South Wales.

There are endless experiences to be enjoyed along your way, from adrenaline-pumping adventure activities to delicious food and wine, family discoveries, natural wonders and too many beaches to count!

You can choose to make your way back to Sydney via the charming Southern Highlands or continue heading south to the Victorian border through the picturesque regions of Eurobodalla and Sapphire Coast.

Early mornings are worth it when Wollongong Harbour lights up like this. The sky puts on a show - and, trust us, no one’s snoozing through that kind of magic 🌅✨

Early mornings at Killalea Regional Park in @visitshellharbour have their own kind of magic ✨

The air is cool, the light is golden, and the world feels calm - just waves rolling in and birds starting to stir.

If you’ve never seen the sun rise here, you’re missing something special.

Forget peak hour - this is beak hour in Mittagong 🦆

When the ducks take over the footpath and the leaves crunch underfoot, you know autumn has hit the @visitsouthernhighlands in full force 🍁

Autumn on the @sapphirecoastnsw? It’s pure coastal bliss - minus the crowds 🍂

As the days grow cooler, the beaches take on a new kind of beauty. The air is crisp, the light is soft, and every stretch of sand feels like it was made just for you. 

Explore secluded coves, stroll along dramatic headlands, or simply sit and watch the waves roll in - it’s a reminder that the best adventures often happen in the quiet seasons.

There’s something truly magical about @kiamansw once the temperature drops…

The air turns crisp, the ocean mist lingers longer, and the crowds melt away - leaving you with uninterrupted views, peaceful coastal walks and plenty of room to breathe 🍂🌊

It’s that perfect blend of wild coast and small-town coast charm - just waiting for you to lean in and enjoy the quiet magic.

Some beaches are beautiful… and then there’s Long Beach 💙

Tucked near Currarong in @visitshoalhaven, this slice of coastal heaven comes with white sand, glassy water, and not a soul in sight. No cafés, no crowds - just pure, salty serenity.

The kind of place you think only exists in postcards? Found it.

Sometimes, the best remedy is an early start and a front-row seat to the sunrise ✨

The ocean doesn’t hurry, and neither should we. Life’s softer moments are always worth slowing down for!

#grandpacificdrive #visitnsw #feelnsw #seeaustralia #visitshellharbour
Sunrise over the bay, coffee in hand, and the promise of adventure all around ☕🌊 

Batemans Bay is a coastal gem with big heart - offering the best of beach town vibes and easy access to the wild beauty of the @eurobodalla region. 

A little slice of laid-back heaven!

There’s scenic… and then there’s Sea Cliff Bridge at sunrise ✨ 

A golden glow, sea spray in the air, and that feeling like you’re cruising along the edge of the world. It’s the ultimate welcome to @visitwollongong and a must on any Grand Pacific Drive adventure!
