Our towns and villages
Built around the coast and its waterways, Eurobodalla’s main hubs of Batemans Bay, Moruya and Narooma are separated by a 45 minute drive interspersed with smaller inland and coastal villages. The River of Art Trail visits many of them with abundant opportunities to stay over, feast and blend arts with a restful and reviving holiday.Accommodation

Base yourself in the heart of town in self-contained, resort or motel style stays; get to know some locals at a Bed & Breakfast, get off the beaten track at a farm stay or retreat or even book a picturesque camping or caravan site near the beach.
