Experience The Sapphire Coast - Worth Staying For
The Sapphire Coast offers plenty to explore for visitors who already spend much of their lives on the water. Merimbula and the surrounding region provide straightforward opportunities to see local marine environments, coastal towns and working waterways, all set within the area’s network of lakes, beaches and estuaries that define its coastal identity. Merimbula Lake, in particular, is a central hub for recreation and marine activity.
Delegates can make use of well‑maintained walking tracks and coastal routes, including the Merimbula Boardwalk and sections of the Wharf to Wharf Walk, both offering clear views into the region’s marine ecosystems and coastal landscapes. The wider Sapphire Coast expands these opportunities further, with access to national parks, lagoons, creeks and lakes that showcase the natural environments supporting the area’s seafood and aquaculture industries.
Beyond Merimbula, the Sapphire Coast includes quiet beaches, ocean pools, bush retreats and extensive coastal walking opportunities. Visitors can explore less‑crowded stretches of coastline, hike through tea‑tree groves and rugged cliff lines, or simply spend time in towns across the region, each offering different perspectives on the coast’s natural and working landscapes.
Food across the region is closely tied to local produce, with many venues along the Sapphire Coast serving fresh seafood.
Whether basing your stay in Merimbula or exploring neighbouring towns along the Sapphire Coast, the region is easy to travel through and offers a practical mix of nature‑based, marine‑focused and food‑led experiences. It’s a worthwhile region to spend extra time in before or after the conference.
