Escape to Shoalhaven Heads NSW with the South Coast Leisure Times

Shoalhaven Heads situated just to the north of the mouth of the Shoalhaven River. Popular for surfing, fishing and access to the Seven Mile Beach National Park and the river. Explore the National Park, walk along the beach or do a bit of kite flying. A great day out is the kite flying days on the first Sunday of each month.

There is a great variety of accommodation from the award winning Coolangatta Estate with its convict built houses to deluxe waterfront cabins and camping sites at the Shoalhaven Heads Tourist Park.

The first grapes on the south coast were grown at Coolangatta Estate by Alexander Berry in the mid 1880's, but it was only in 1988 that the potential was seen to develop a winery which would expand the estate's tourism facilities and begin to re-establish the Shoalhaven as a wine growing area.

The range of Estate red and white whites have won in excess of 280 medals with the 1998 Coolangatta Estate Semillion winning gold at the 2001 Cowra Wine Show and twice NSW Top 40.

Varieties now include the whites; Chardonnay, Verdelho, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon and reds; Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Merlot and Chambourcin. Coolangatta Estate is the largest Shoalhaven Vineyard, producing 5,000 cases of wine annually. In the last four years Coolangatta Estate has won 64 Awards at National & Regional Wine Shows. The estate's 'Cellar Door' sales area is open for wine an cheese tasting, sales, lunch and Devonshire teas, from 10am to 4pm daily and as a leading winery with award winning wines - definitely not be missed!
