Allow plenty of time to explore the area’s rich and varied wildlife. Between June and November, the waters close to Huskisson offer one of the world’s best places to spot migrating humpback whales and southern right whales.

Tourist info very helpful once licated. A pleasant wander around the maritime museum area and the mangrove boardwalk.. . Huskisson seems to shut up shop early and places to eat hard to find other than a good meal at Stone Grill

4/5 - Good
