Discovering hidden gems: The best neighbourhoods to buy in Batemans Bay

Photography by Blackshaw Coastal

The NSW South Coast is one of the most beautiful regions in all of Australia, boasting 400km of coastline offering pristine beaches, secluded coves, stunning mountains and crystal-clear waterways. One of the area’s biggest drawcards is Batemans Bay, and it’s here that you’ll find some of the best neighbourhoods in which to buy. We’ve selected 5 of our favourites for you to consider.

Broulee

When it comes to the ultimate coastal lifestyle, then Broulee is hard to top. Known as the “Village by the Sea”, it offers excellent surfing, swimming and fishing opportunities. North Broulee Beach, Shark Bay and South Broulee Beach are all within walking distance of each other and protected by the landmark Broulee Island Nature Reserve. The reserve offers some great walks with panoramic views, and is brimming with native plants and birdlife. South Broulee offers anglers easy access to rock and beach fishing all the way down to Bengello Beach. The Broulee Surf Club is nearby and is a great spot for friends and family to gather for a drink or bite to eat.

Malua Bay

Head 13 kilometres south-east from Batemans Bay and you’ll find the magnificent Malua Bay, one of the most popular and sought-after suburbs in all of the area. The sparkling patrolled beach attracts surfers, swimmers and families alike, with its large grassy reserve complete with picnic tables, barbecues, and kids’ play equipment, as well as local shops, supermarket, butcher, cafe and takeaway. The area has a number of protected coves, ideal for snorkelling and diving. Only a short drive away to the north, boating enthusiasts will find the Mosquito Bay boat ramp, and to the south, the semienclosed McKenzies Beach and the aptly named Pretty Point.

Surfside

Nestled between Batemans Bay and Long Beach, on the north bank of the Clyde estuary, is the charming suburb of Surfside. So many homes here are not only blessed with some of the most commanding and awe-inspiring views in all of the region, but many are situated on absolute waterfront with direct access to the beach, or sit on the Cullendulla Creek waterways, the perfect spot to fossick for fresh oysters or jump into a kayak and paddle out to the ocean. The area offers a nearby convenience store, takeaway, boat ramp, parks, primary school, access to the Cullendulla Creek Nature Reserve, and is less than a 10-minute drive to Batemans Bay.

Tomakin

The suburb of Tomakin offers coastal living at its finest, and there’s no better way to soak up the area’s natural beauty than at the Melville Point lookout, located at the headland between Tomakin Cove and Barlings Beach. The lookout has sweeping views over the beach and a fabulous vista of Mossy Point, Broulee Island, Guerilla Bay and the Great Dividing Range to the west. The nearby Tomaga River connects Tomakin with the quiet haven of Mossy Point, an area surrounded by crystal clear waters, beautiful beaches, wetlands and the picturesque Candlagan Creek, all popular spots for swimming, surfing, boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, jet skiing and fishing. The area is serviced by local supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, takeaway shops and the ever-popular Tomakin Sports and Social Club.

Sunshine Bay

Located only minutes away from the centre of Batemans Bay, the ideally located Sunshine Bay is only minutes from pristine beaches, luscious bushlands and uninterrupted vistas overlooking its picturesque cove, the Pacific Ocean and beyond. This desirable suburb is not only home to some of the most stunning and iconic beachfront homes in the region, but is also close to schools, cafes, restaurants, supermarkets, sporting and recreational clubs, the Edward Street markets, and is just up the road from the summer-patrolled Surf Beach.
