Wagonga Inlet near Easts Holiday Park on this short, easy ride in Narooma.
The cycleway for this ride passes directly in front of Easts Holiday Park, providing cyclists with easy access to Narooma's many sites and treats. When you stay at the holiday park, you can enjoy absolute water frontage on one of the most pristine waterways on the Eurobodalla coast.
The ride begins at Apex Park, at the eastern end of the boardwalk. The beach there is popular in summertime, as there is a netted area for swimming in a protected bay.
The Mill Bay Boardwalk
The first highlight of this ride is to cross the Mill Bay Boardwalk - the recently constructed 700-metre long multi-use facility that hugs the shore. Take your time riding along the boardwalk - the waters below are usually clear, and large stingrays and numerous other fish are often seen.
At the end of the boardwalk, there is a boat launching ramp and car park. Small children might need supervision at this point. The track then climbs a short hill to the steel bridge over Wagonga Inlet. The foot path and cycleway is separate from the traffic. Spend a few moments to take in the views from the bridge and across the inlet.
The cycling track continues past the caravan park and around the shoreline to Rotary Park and the playground.
Rotary Park
The ride beyond Rotary Park might not be suitable for small children in peak holiday times. The road beyond the park is narrow. Although during most of the year it carries only occasional sightseers to Bar Lookout, at Christmas holiday time it can be quite busy.
At Bar Lookout, there are viewing platforms, and a stairway leading to the road below and the southern breakwater. From Bar Lookout, there are views over to the golf course to the south, and the beaches and headlands to the north.
Whales
Between September and November, watch for whales as they perform their acrobatic displays. The whales will be evident by their blow, or by their splashing as they show off their breaching (leaping partly out of the water), or by their tail and flipper slapping. This behaviour is most common with humpback whales.
Across the water from Bar Lookout, you can see the start of the ride - only a few hundred metres away - although the distance travelled so far is about four kilometres.
The southern breakwater
Between Rotary Park and Bar Lookout, there is a road to the left. Take that, as it goes to the end of the southern breakwater, about 300 metres from the turnoff. Cyclists can get views across the water to Narooma.
Return the same way that you came.
Easts Narooma Shores Holiday Park has all the facilities to ensure a perfect carefree holiday experience.
