About Shellharbour

Wedged between the Pacific Ocean and Lake Illawarra, Shellharbour is a coastal suburb to the south of Wollongong. The area was inhabited by Indigenous peoples for thousands of years before free settlers began arriving in 1817. Since its founding as a town in 1851, Shellharbour has blossomed into a seaside getaway destination for surfing, fishing and birdwatching.

Keen anglers can cast a fishing line in Lake Illawarra to lure dusky flathead, surf bream and sand sillago while birdwatchers should keep their eyes peeled for cormorants, pelicans and spoonbills. Shellharbour is also renowned for its surfing, with “The Farm” and “Mystics” surf breaks both included in the Killalea National Surfing Reserve.
