This area is absolutely stunning. Even on a fine day photos don’t do it justice.
The name Moruya is derived from an aboriginal word meaning “Home of the Black Swan.”
During gold mining days, industries like dairying, fishing and oyster farming were an important part of the town’s economy and still are today. Moruya also quarried blue granite and the town is full of the most beautiful mix of old buildings built from this granite.
We camped at a spot at the beach called Moruya Heads, about 10 minutes from Moruya.

Monday 21st……
We are at a beautiful spot called Moruya Heads. Were a bit disappointed yesterday when we arrived. Maybe the dismal weather or too many people. (Sunday)
This morning we have the camp almost to ourselves and the weather is perfect. Have just got back from a long walk up the beautiful beach. Stunning.
