Shoalhaven Heads is a peaceful NSW South Coast village between Mount Coolangatta, Seven Mile Beach and the mouth of the Shoalhaven River. Its setting makes it an easy place to slow down around the beach, river and coastal bushland. Visit NSW has current Shoalhaven Heads destination information. (opens in a new tab)
Plan outdoor time around local conditions and signs, especially near the river entrance and beach. Seven Mile Beach and nearby coastal habitats are shared places: give wildlife space, use marked access points and check current weather and water conditions before heading out.
