Currarong

Currarong sits at the northern tip of the Beecroft Peninsula, where the road ends and the sandstone cliffs begin. A small village surrounded by fourteen white-sand beaches, with Currarong Creek running through the middle and Jervis Bay Marine Park just offshore.

Fewer than 500 people live here year-round. For everyone else, it’s the place they come back to every summer, and some of them eventually stay.

Property Types

It's all in the details

Currarong is a houses-only market, and a small one. Expect original beach shacks, renovated cottages and larger homes built for extended family summers, many of them working as holiday rentals between visits. Creekfront and water-view homes come up rarely, and the larger four-bedroom homes command a clear premium, with a median above $1.4m.

Location & lifestyle

Life in Currarong

Abrahams Bosom Beach is the family swim, sheltered and easy. From there, the Wreck Walk leads to the rusted remains of the SS Merimbula, and the longer Coomies Walk takes you around the headland. Out at Point Perpendicular, the cliffs drop 75 metres into the sea, and from May to November the whales pass close enough to hear.

On the first Saturday of each month, local artists open their studios for the Currarong Art Trail. Nowra is around half an hour away. Sydney is two and a half hours north.
