A family day out at Shoalhaven Zoo (formerly Nowra Wildlife Park)

Liz — Sat, 12 May 2012 02:05:44 +0000

If you’re looking for something fun to do for the whole family then get along to Shoalhaven Zoo. Set in bushland on the banks of the Shoalhaven at North Nowra, this is the largest native and exotic zoo on the NSW South Coast. We go there frequently and love it every time. It’s privately owned and managed and staff put on great talks.

There is quite a variety of animals from snoozing wombats and koala to crocs and camels. Don’t miss the opportunity to cuddle a koala or get all wrapped up in a friendly python and take the “Jungle Walk” along the back of the park – our kids’ favourite.

Another Fishing Moment at Anglers Rest, Greenwell Point

Fred has been coming back to stay and fish at Anglers Rest cabins, Greenwell Point for a while now. Last Sunday night he landed this 83cm jewfish from the wharf, along with 7 bream and some blackfish. Not bad eh!!

Navy helicopter lands at boat ramp parking opposite Anglers Rest, Greenwell Point

Liz — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 23:36:52 +0000

This Navy helicopter made an emergency landing at the Greenwell Point boat ramp parking opposite Angler’s Rest last Wednesday after experiencing a transmission fault alarm when 5nm out to sea. The Navy ordinarily use the Agusta A109E Power helicopter for training, public relations and recruiting activities, and in keeping with their training the Navy crew very kindly took some snap shots of Anglers Rest customers posing with the helicopter while they waited for another helicopter to land with the necessary stuff to get back in the air. Thanks for the entertainment!!!

Thank you to Shoalhaven Marine Rescue

Liz — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 01:00:27 +0000

Marine Rescue’s SAREX (Search and Rescue Exercise) saw Police & Rescue boats, crewed by volunteers from the region ready for action first thing Sunday morning. Training exercises were held over the weekend & volunteers accommodated at Angler’s Rest. Under perfect conditions the volunteer rescue teams found the dummy dropped by a navy helicopter without a hitch on Sunday. Good on ya, thanks for all your volunteer efforts & choosing Greenwell Point & Angler’s Rest for your accommodation again this year.

Speed boats line the beach in the Squidgie Southern Bream Series Fishing Comp.

Liz — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 00:03:42 +0000

Last Sunday Greenwell Point played host to about 70 speed boats and kayaks in the Squidgie Southern Bream Series. With 70+ teams in the SSBS, the beach opposite Angler’s Rest was abuzz with shiny speed boats, kayaks & eager fishermen. With speeds of 100+kph I was caught thinking how much fun speedy fishing (or not fishing) could be, but not for long – 50 or so marine rescue personnel were waiting for their coffee…
