Snorkelling Mystery Bay

Mystery Bay boasts an array of stunning beaches and rock formations, ideal for snorkellers seeking to build skills and confidence. The beach is split into two areas, the northern section and the smaller southern beach. The southern area is protected from large waves and is perfect for beginners to swim around the rock bars. For the adventurous, there are also deep channels around Mystery Bay with fantastic snorkelling areas.

How to get there: Follow the Princes Highway south from Narooma for approximately 10 kilometres, then turn left onto Mystery Bay Road. There’s a wonderful diving area around the rocks, or try the huge, sheltered rock pool a little north of Mystery Bay Beach. Head north through the primitive campground. You’ll find a track that heads right. This will descend quite steeply as it gets to the pool.
