Located on the south coast of New South Wales, Moruya is a peaceful town on the banks of the gorgeous Moruya River. It’s far removed from the bustling, busy pace of life in Australia’s more popular cities. That doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of adventures to embark on. Head to villages, such as Congo, Bingi, or Moruya Heads, for tranquil beaches on the river banks, take on Moruya Kayak Trail, or bike on scenic trails by the river. Don’t forget to visit the lively Saturday Country Market or SAGE Market on Saturday mornings for fresh food, quality produce, and bespoke crafts. Keep this town in mind the next time you’re looking for a laid-back destination steeped in culture and natural beauty.
