Yamba Area - Yamba

From Iluka in the north through Yamba, Maclean to Wooli in the south, the Clarence Coast is blessed with idyllic weather. The CSIRO and Stanford

University have confirmed something that locals have always known - Yamba has the world's best climate.

In the secluded, coastal fishing village of Iluka, explore World-Heritage listed littoral rainforest at the Iluka Nature Reserve. The Iluka Bluff in Bundjalung

National Park has a panoramic whale-watching platform. Yuraygir National Park protects the longest stretch of undeveloped coastline (60 kilometres) in

New South Wales, with a superb coastal walk from Angourie.

On the southern cusp of the Clarence River, Yamba is a great spot for fishing or prawning, contains a host of beaches that are super for surfing or other

waterways for diving, and offers a great rock pool. Treat yourself to the famous Yamba prawns and Wooli oysters at one of the many award -winning

restaurants or gourmet cafes. Browse through arts and crafts shops, check out the marina, hire a boat or take a relaxing river cruise, an adrenaline

pumping jet boat ride or order up a latte. If you're in need of a little relaxation, pamper yourself at a day spa.

Views from the Yamba Lighthouse are striking and two nearby coastal parks, Yuraygir and Bundjalung, are day trips all on their own.

Serious anglers visit the Clarence Coast with a frypan in the fishing gear. Yamba and Iluka on either side of the mouth of the Clarence River and the Clarence Coast provide a wide choice for fishing. Keen anglers can select the very best estuary, rock, beach or deep-sea fishing.

Excellent surfing beaches are found all along the coast and just south of Yamba you’ll find the legendary Point Break at Angourie.
