Wollongong Travel Guide

Tourist Guide
Wollongong which includes a beach and general coastal views
Experience the wonders of Wollongong – the city is a trick of the eye. Stroll the streets and you’ll think you’re in a cosy coastal town.

Hit the centre, however, and you’ll find plenty of action. Dine at restaurants that serve up a variety of cuisines and bars that pour local drops. Meet local artists who draw upon their spectacular surroundings for inspiration. The Illawarra mountain range peers over the coast and wild surf beaches scored with pretty rock pools. Look around – you’ll be inspired, too.

A great stay
"We really enjoyed the stay and the lovely staff who were all friendly, helpful and very professional. We'll certainly come back. Only negative was the noise from outside the room. needs more insulation I think for when people are noisy in the corridors. That aside, all else was perfect."
