There are also several lovely beach towns worthy of a diversion on the way to regional hub town Moruya. Tomakin, Mossy Point and Broulee all line up near the mouth of the Tomaga River, with surfing and other water sports being the main priorities.

For a decent, affordable motel: Moruya Motel.

Sydney to Narooma road trip: Moruya to Narooma

After Moruya, the Princes Highway bends around the Tuross River estuary and Borang Lake on the way to Narooma.

The Bodalla Dairy Shed just outside Bodalla is worth a stop, however. There are free cheese and ice cream tastings here, although you’ll inevitably want to buy afterwards.

In Narooma, activities include whale-watching, snorkelling with seals and Montague Island tours. Montague Island Adventures offers all three.

You can also explore using an e-bike rental.

Narooma accommodation picks include the Amooran Oceanside Apartments, the cheaper Top of the Town Motor Inn and the family-friendly Surf Beach Narooma Holiday Park.
