All about Tuross Head
A coastal village around halfway between the towns of Moruya and Narooma on the New South Wales South Coast, Tuross Head sits on a low headland overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The town is sandwiched between the tidal lakes of Tuross Lake to the south and Coila Lake to the north.
Tuross Lake is home to a number of oyster farms, while prawns are harvested from shallow Coila Lake, so the town’s seafood restaurants are not to be missed. The lakes are also great for kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding, with plenty of little islands and estuaries worth checking out. There are consistently good waves to surf off the sandy beaches around the headland, but tidal flows out of Tuross Lake generate strong rips, so if you’re swimming take care to stay close to shore. The opening to Coila Lake is usually blocked by sandbanks, so you can also head to the more sheltered Coila Bar Beach at the northern end of town to have a dip in the waves.
What are the top things to do in Tuross Head?

Potato Point
North of Eurobodalla National Park, experienced snorkelers can explore the waters around Potato Point, which are home to a variety of fish and stingrays. Keep an eye out for the area’s resident emus, which like to hang out on Potato Point Beach.
