Australia is renowned as a paradise of the sea, home to the most beaches in the world. With over 10,000 stunning beaches and the world’s largest coral reef, this country invites you to explore and connect deeply with its spectacular coastal nature. Joining the Nelson Bay Tour will offer you one of the most complete Australian beach experiences, taking you to one of the top coastal regions in New South Wales. You’ll get to touch marine creatures with your own hands, slide across desert-like sand dunes, or even ride camels just like in the Australian outback. This is undoubtedly one of the most exciting tours when visiting this fascinating continent.
Tour Program:
+ Anna Bay – Sand Dunes: Vietbooking will take you to Anna Bay, one of the most beautiful beaches in New South Wales. The sea here is crystal clear, bordered by vast stretches of white sand. Most notably, the gigantic sand dunes form a stunning "mini desert" landscape. At this location, you’ll experience two extreme contrasts: the cool blue sea and the dry, arid desert. There are many fun activities available here: swimming, photo ops, exploration, paid sandboarding, ATV rides across the dunes, and camel riding ($40/person).
+ Nelson Bay: This breathtaking bay features water so clear you can see the bottom. Schools of fish swim freely near the harbor, and visitors can even feed them. The town was voted “Aussie Town of the Year 2025” by Wotif. This is also your lunch stop. You can enjoy a packed meal in a seaside park or have lunch at a Vietnamese restaurant selected by our guide.
* Option 1: Dolphin & Whale Watching: This is one of the most popular activities in Nelson Bay. Dolphins are present all year round, while humpback whales typically appear between May and August during their migration. The special-purpose boat offers close-up dolphin encounters. With a capacity of up to 300 passengers, the vessel ensures a smooth ride, minimizing seasickness. Additional ticket: $42/person, duration: 1.5 hours.
* Option 2: Irukandji Shark & Ray Encounters: One of the best ways to learn is through seeing, hearing, and touching. At Irukandji, you’ll not only observe fascinating sea creatures but also have the rare chance to touch giant rays the size of tables or beds, and interact with Australia’s famously “gentle” sharks—yes, not all sharks are dangerous! This is a great alternative if you prefer not to go on the boat or if sea conditions are rough. Ticket price is the same as the dolphin tour; duration: 2 hours.
+ Toboggan Hill Park: A small amusement park with a thrilling hill slide. Many visitors love the excitement of zooming down the track. Self-guided ride, affordable price: $10/person.
+ Caves Beach: This beach boasts clear blue water alongside rugged cliffs and mysterious sea caves. It's a fun spot for climbing and exploring ancient caves, with the waves unfolding spectacularly as you exit each one. A perfect location for checking in and wrapping up a day filled with awe-inspiring nature and adventure at Nelson Bay.
