Callala Beach House Rentals

Callala Beach is a small town with a beach of the same name on the southern coast of New South Wales, about 200km south of Sydney. Holiday houses are often right next to Jervis Bay and range from modest apartments to beach houses right on the waterfront and large, design-centric house rentals with private pools.

Museums dedicated to the sea and air

In Huskisson, the Jervis Bay Maritime Museum is dedicated to the shipping history of this region. Its exhibits include maritime instruments, ship models, and a historic ferry. A 20min drive inland, in Nowra, you can visit the Fleet Air Museum, which is home to all manner of historical aircraft.

Callala Beach with the kids

The Shoalhaven Zoo is located on the Shoalhaven river and is home to Australian fauna. You will get to see marsupials such as wallabies, kangaroos, wombats, and koalas. Children will love the farm animals, including ponies, sheep, cows, and horses.

For time outdoors spent away from the beach, take the kids to Jervis Bay National Park. Here you can hike, visit botanical gardens, go birdwatching, and potentially spot dolphins.

Swim in the turquoise blue waters of Jervis Bay

Jervis Bay is world-famous for its stunning white sand and turquoise blue water. Around the coast from Callala Beach, Hyams Beach is likely the most popular beach on the bay, offering numerous on-water activities. You can easily entertain the whole family here.

Closer to home, go hiking on the white sand trail, take a cruise to see whales and dolphins, and explore staggering sandstone cliffs at Murrays Beach. You can also take sailing lessons at the Jervis Bay Sailing Club, snorkel in Honeymoon Bay, or drive to the Point Perpendicular Lighthouse, for panoramic views of the Pacific.
