Whale Studio, 1A Ocean Street, Fishermans Bay, NSW 2316

Queen Bed studio with ensuite. This studio apartment backs on to reserve and beach with great water views, including air conditioning, shared laundry, and hot tub. Non Smoking Premise.

The Location - If it is peace and quiet you are looking for then this is the place for you! Fishermans Bay in Tomaree National Park is a wonderful place for a holiday by the sea. Fishermans Bay has a small bay with a secluded sandy beach (less than 100m from the apartment) which is a great place for swimming, snorkeling, rockpool walks, and fishing for Snapper and Kingfish. If you don't like waves, this is perfect as the waves only ever lap the shore in the shallow sandy bay. If you're visiting between May and October then it's a great spot to watch whales on their annual migration along the north coast, with dolphins sometimes also seen year-round, so remember to bring your binoculars! If you're looking to go boating or kayaking for the day, you can launch your vessel from the small boat ramp here and you'll be able to find out more about the area at the information bay across from the apartment. Birubi Beach in Anna Bay is just a 1.5km scenic walk away and you will be amazed by the Stockton Sand Dunes with World War II relics. Here you can relax, swim or surf at the patrolled beach, enjoy breakfast or lunch at Crest restaurant, take a 4WD tour and sandboard the dunes or take a camel ride. Anna Bay shops are only 1.8km from the apartment where you will find a convenience store, bakery, butcher, Tavern, post office, and takeaways plus much more. The township of Nelson Bay is 11km away. If you have a 4WD you can drive on Samurai naturist beach for beach fishing and surfing. From the apartment, there are numerous bushwalks along the coastline, leading to beautiful secluded beaches.

The Apartment - A brand new, well-appointed, ground floor studio apartment offers a queen-size bed, small dining table, and two chairs, a side bench with a bar fridge, a convection microwave, De Longhi coffee machine (pods not supplied), toaster and kettle.
