As the beach is situated just outside the national park, your furry friends are welcome (on a leash) and there is no entrance fee. Street parking is available but, in the height of summer, can be hard to find. There are public bathroom facilities at the main section of the beach but there are no supermarkets or restaurants nearby. Due to its size and ease of access, this beach can get very busy during the summer months but don\u2019t worry &#8211; there\u2019s plenty of space for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>BEST FOR: Dog owners or people who like long sandy beaches for walking.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-14673 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach4_Australia-774x968.jpg\" alt=\"AUSTRALIA- JERVIS BAY'S BEST BEACHES HyamsBeach4_Australia\" width=\"774\" height=\"968\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach4_Australia-774x968.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach4_Australia-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach4_Australia-500x625.jpg 500w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach4_Australia.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-14671 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach2_Australia-774x968.jpg\" alt=\"AUSTRALIA- JERVIS BAY'S BEST BEACHES HyamsBeach2_Australia\" width=\"774\" height=\"968\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach2_Australia-774x968.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach2_Australia-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach2_Australia-500x625.jpg 500w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach2_Australia-1080x1350.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach2_Australia.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-14672 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach3_Australia-774x968.jpg\" alt=\"AUSTRALIA- JERVIS BAY'S BEST BEACHES HyamsBeach3_Australia\" width=\"774\" height=\"968\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach3_Australia-774x968.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach3_Australia-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach3_Australia-500x625.jpg 500w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-HyamsBeach3_Australia.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>2.

For AUD$12 you can get a 48 hour pass into the park at the toll booths as you drive in. The best part? The national park also has allocated camping spots so you can stay overnight!<\/p>\n<p>Murrays Beach itself is small but boasts some impressive views back onto Hyams Beach and out into the open ocean. It is situated in a protected bay which is sheltered by Bowen Island so it is a perfect option on a day with high winds (which happens to be quite often down the South Coast). There is a large carpark and, as the beach is a bit further away from the main town, it tends to be much quieter.<\/p>\n<p>There are many self-guided walks around Murrays Beach and if you come down in the evening you might be lucky enough to see penguins, yapping to one another as they head back out towards their homes on Bowen Island after feeding in the park&#8217;s waters during the day.<\/p>\n<p>BEST FOR: Bush walkers or people who want to enjoy peaceful views.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-14679 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach6_Australia-774x968.png\" alt=\"AUSTRALIA- JERVIS BAY'S BEST BEACHES MurraysBeach6_Australia\" width=\"774\" height=\"968\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach6_Australia-774x968.png 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach6_Australia-120x150.png 120w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach6_Australia-500x625.png 500w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach6_Australia.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-14678 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach5_Australia-774x968.jpg\" alt=\"AUSTRALIA- JERVIS BAY'S BEST BEACHES MurraysBeach5_Australia\" width=\"774\" height=\"968\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach5_Australia-774x968.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach5_Australia-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach5_Australia-500x625.jpg 500w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach5_Australia.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-14675 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach_Australia-2-774x581.jpg\" alt=\"AUSTRALIA- JERVIS BAY'S BEST BEACHES MurraysBeach_Australia-2\" width=\"774\" height=\"581\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach_Australia-2-774x581.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach_Australia-2-120x90.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach_Australia-2-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach_Australia-2-1080x810.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach_Australia-2.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-14676 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach3_Australia-774x966.jpg\" alt=\"AUSTRALIA- JERVIS BAY'S BEST BEACHES MurraysBeach3_Australia\" width=\"774\" height=\"966\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach3_Australia-774x966.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach3_Australia-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach3_Australia-500x624.jpg 500w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-MurraysBeach3_Australia.jpg 1026w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>3.

To reach the beach you need to descend down a number of steep steps, so some level of fitness is required in order to get up and down! However, the effort is well worth it. The beach is often empty so there\u2019s a high chance you\u2019ll have this slice of paradise entirely to yourself.<\/p>\n<p>The beach is bordered by cliffs at either end and backs onto a bushy cliff face. The result is that it\u2019s like an amphitheater. It has a crescent shape that curls underneath the cliffs, and at the ends are large rock pools filled with interesting sea life.<\/p>\n<p>While it offers fantastic views and exploring potential, I advise to swim with caution \u2013 the beach has severe rip tides and there are large sharks around due to a nearby seal colony. Take care.<\/p>\n<p>BEST FOR: Adventure seekers!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-14681 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach2_Australia-774x968.jpg\" alt=\"AUSTRALIA- JERVIS BAY'S BEST BEACHES SteamersBeach2_Australia\" width=\"774\" height=\"968\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach2_Australia-774x968.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach2_Australia-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach2_Australia-500x625.jpg 500w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach2_Australia.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-14684 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach5_Australia-774x968.jpg\" alt=\"AUSTRALIA- JERVIS BAY'S BEST BEACHES SteamersBeach5_Australia\" width=\"774\" height=\"968\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach5_Australia-774x968.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach5_Australia-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach5_Australia-500x625.jpg 500w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach5_Australia-1080x1350.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AUSTRALIA-JERVIS-BAYS-BEST-BEACHES-SteamersBeach5_Australia.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>EMILIA\u2019S TOP TIP:<\/h3>\n<p>If you have time, make sure to check out the lively coastal town of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kiama,_New_South_Wales\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kiama<\/a> (about a 45 minute drive from Jervis Bay). From the famous <a href=\"http:\/\/www.visitnsw.com\/destinations\/south-coast\/kiama-area\/kiama\/attractions\/kiama-blowhole\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blowhole<\/a> and lighthouse, to some fantastic eateries, this place is definitely worth a stopover on your way back to Sydney.
