Swim with Jervis’ most majestic creatures.<\/p><\/div>\n
Swim with seals<\/h2>\n
Make the journey on Seascape<\/em> with Woebegone Free Dive<\/a><\/u> from Woollamia Boat Ramp to snorkel or free-dive with a colony of NZ and Australian fur seals. Woebegone is one of only a few operators with a license to swim with both seals and whales in NSW waters, which means you can jump in the big blue and do just that during the migration season. Kudos to the eco-minded operator, which partners with Sea Shepherd<\/em>, for organising monthly beach clean-ups, too.<\/p>\n Seals in their playground.<\/p><\/div>\n While the emphasis around Jervis Bay is often on the turquoise seas, there\u2019s also a chance to lose yourself in the surrounding forest and farmland. Families who stay at The Woods Farm of Jervis Bay<\/a><\/u> are encouraged to feed the farm animals, which includes a menagerie of cows, horses, and sheep. Give the tree-change a trial run by staying in a cute-as cottage or bell tent, collecting fresh eggs for breakfast and then watching kangaroos hop by on cue.<\/p>\n Watch the Kangaroos hop by at The Woods Farm.<\/p><\/div>\n Jervis Bay Maritime Museum<\/a> is <\/u>located near a kink of Currambene Creek, a saline coastal tributary that runs from Huskisson through to the Paperbark Camp<\/a><\/u>. A day trip here awaits you and your kids who will love feeding the fish in The Pond, a gazetted fish reserve that provides a sustainable habit for species such as kingfish, flathead, flounder and octopus. See the landscape from an Indigenous perspective on a Gadhungal Murring<\/a><\/u> tour, which departs from the museum.<\/p>\n Your kids will love feeding the fish in The Pond.<\/p><\/div>\n Take a sunset cruise on the Husky Ferry through the Jervis Bay Marine Reserve<\/a> and it\u2019s highly likely you\u2019ll spy stingrays flying through the cerulean seas. The sunset cruise, which operates out of Huskisson and Myola, is touted by locals as \u00a0. Hop onboard the ferry as it makes its way up Currambene Creek in winter and you\u2019re likely to see baby stingrays swimming with their mothers.<\/p>\n Spot stingrays off the Husky Bay ferry.<\/p><\/div>\n Dolphin Watch Cruises<\/a><\/u> was one of the first companies to offer dolphin and whale watching tours in Australia and has been cruising in and around Jervis Bay for more than three decades. There\u2019s a high probability you will see the resident bottlenose dolphins surfing the waves created by the boat carving through the seas. And, with the aid of binoculars, you might even be able to spot a whale (between May and November) or sea eagle soaring overhead.<\/p>\n Dolphin Watch Cruises has been around for over three decades.<\/p><\/div>\n Find a perch to sit and look out over St George\u2019s Basin from the Pelican Waterfront Caf\u00e9 & Restaurant<\/a> <\/u>and you are bound to see the large water birds patrolling the shore in search of fish. Watch the pelicans wade into the water yawning open their bills and then stuffing themselves to the gills as scraps of fish are thrown their way by local fisherman. This kind of opportunistic form of feeding does not work for guests at the caf\u00e9, so get in line to order that seafood plate for two.<\/p>\n See the large water birds patrolling the shore in search of fish.<\/p><\/div>\n From above, Jervis Bay Marine Park resembles a pretty turquoise necklace, with the sand stretching around Jervis Bay in a series of perfect crescents. One of the things that makes the place so special is the wildlife, and Jervis Bay Wild<\/a><\/u> knows where to go to secure front-row seats to see nesting colonies of several different seabird species, such as the fairy penguin and sooty oystercatcher.<\/p>\n Jervis Bay Wild knows where to go.<\/p><\/div>\n A number of octopuses have been spotted living in high density at a site in Jervis Bay according to the Marine and Freshwater Behaviour and Physiology<\/em> journal.\u00a0 While scientists continue to study congregations of the gloomy octopus, you may be able to spot a cephalopod or two swimming in and around the rock platforms off Green Patch Beach<\/a><\/u>. As well as being a popular spot to snorkel, you can stay at Green Patch campground in beautiful Booderee National Park.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n On a good day you will see whales blowing and pods of dolphins onboard Jervis Bay Sailing Charters<\/a><\/u>. On a bad day \u2026 uhh, wait, there are no bad days<\/a><\/u>. Head to the bow of the boat to spot dolphins and whales when they\u2019re migrating up or down the coast. Otherwise, just kick back on the forward trampoline area under a full sail and stare up at the sky, looking for sea birds on your exclusive yacht charter.<\/p>\n Spot wildlife onboard Jervis Bay Sailing Charters.<\/p><\/div>\n Wait for a day when the skies are stretched tight like a blue tarpaulin before hiring a fishing kayak from Jervis Bay Kayak\u00a0 and Paddlesports<\/a><\/u>. Follow the birds swooping and skimming the water and head outside the marine park where even if you are not rewarded with an amazing catch, there\u2019s every opportunity to appreciate the crystal-clear waterways and beaches.\u00a0 Don\u2019t forget to consult the zoning map for recreational fishing in Jervis Bay Marine Park before you head off.<\/p>\n![\"Jervis](\"https:\/\/s1.at.atcdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2Seals-in-their-playground..jpg\")
