The NSW Rural Fire Service has declared that visitors can return to the Shoalhaven and a handy resource  provides up to date information for visitors, including a trip builder and other ways to give back as well as booking your trip to the area.

For many city folk, the Shoalhaven is home away from home, a place to escape and unwind, where friendly faces greet you on a white sand beach or café staff smile and know your coffee order from last time you stayed over. The south coast is open for business and welcomes you back to a place you can call home, put your feet up and use that annual leave you’ve got up your sleeve.

So many reasons to visit:
