As part of the picturesque Illawarra region, Woonona, Bellambi, Corrimal, and Tarrawanna are graced with both beach and bush settings. Ideally positioned below the sprawling Illawarra Escarpment, all four suburbs are flanked by mountainous views to the west and the South Pacific Ocean to the east. Woonona is situated 11 kilometres north of Wollongong and is a peaceful coastal hub offering a much slower pace than the city centres of Wollongong and Sydney. Travel just a couple of kilometres south and you’ll come across Corrimal followed by Bellambi and Tarrawanna.

Woonona Beach, Bellambi Beach and Corrimal Beach satisfy locals and attract visitors with long stretches of perfect white sand and active waves. With its own boat ramp and a small harbour, Bellambi Beach is a hotspot for fishing, while its charming rockpool keeps families and teens occupied during the summer months. Nearby Corrimal Beach offers an even more idyllic setting with 1.4 kilometres of beachfront coupled with sand dunes and lush natural reserves. Corrimal Beach Tourist Park is located right next to the beach and attracts thousands of visitors every year. It’s onsite Ebb and Tide Cafe is a popular hangout for the locals. Tarrawanna is just three kilometres inland from the beach and is bordered by the breathtaking Illawarra Escarpment State Conservation Area.
