What to see and do in Kiama

Hiring a caravan, motorhome, campervan or RV in Kiama offers the perfect blend of seaside relaxation and coastal adventure. You can park your rig near the famous blowhole to feel the ocean spray, drive through lush rainforests just minutes from the beach, and enjoy the convenience of holiday parks that put you right in the centre of town.

Scenic drives

Scenic drives

The Grand Pacific Drive is the region's showstopper; taking your motorhome north over the Sea Cliff Bridge offers one of Australia’s most spectacular coastal views. For a change of pace, head inland on Tourist Drive 9 towards Jamberoo and Robertson to swap surf for rolling green hills and waterfalls. A short but rewarding drive in your van is up to Saddleback Mountain Lookout, where you can see the entire coastline from Cronulla to Jervis Bay on a clear day.

Nature & parks

Nature & parks

The Kiama Coast Walk is a highlight for nature lovers, stretching 20km from Minnamurra to Gerringong with stunning headland views that you can tackle in sections. Drive your RV to the Minnamurra Rainforest Centre to walk the boardwalks through ancient subtropical rainforest and see the cascading falls. Of course, you can't miss the famous Kiama Blowhole and the impressive basalt columns of the nearby Cathedral Rocks, which are a photographer's dream at sunrise.

Local history & culture

Local history & culture

Kiama has a rich heritage as a cedar-getting and quarrying town; explore this past at the Pilot’s Cottage Museum, which sits on the headland near the lighthouse. You can also wander past the historic terrace houses on Collins Street, built in 1886 for quarry workers and now home to charming local shops. The area is the traditional land of the Wodi Wodi people of the Dharawal nation, and the name "Kiama" is said to mean "where the sea makes a noise," referencing the blowhole's significance.

Local tastes (food/drink)

Local tastes (food/drink)

If you're in town on a Wednesday, stock your caravan pantry with fresh local produce from the Kiama Farmers Market at Surf Beach. For a meal with a view, park up and head to Penny Whistlers for coffee overlooking the harbour, or grab a gourmet burger at The Hungry Monkey. Beer lovers can sample local brews from Stoic Brewing, often found at the seaside markets, while a visit to The Original Ice Creamery or Scoops is a rite of passage for dessert.

Outdoor adventure

Kiama is a surfer's paradise; you can book a lesson with Gerroa Surf School at Seven Mile Beach, which offers gentle waves perfect for beginners. For a different perspective, try stand-up paddleboarding on the calm waters of the Minnamurra River. If you're seeking thrills, drive your campervan inland to Jamberoo Action Park or take on the highest zipline in Australia at Illawarra Fly Treetop Adventures.

Camping lifestyle

Kiama is incredibly welcoming to the RV community, with Surf Beach Holiday Park located right on the headland, allowing you to walk into town for dinner. For a quieter escape, Kendalls Beach Holiday Park offers a beachfront setting where you can wake up to the sound of the waves. Further south, Seven Mile Beach Holiday Park is a favourite for families, offering direct access to the sand and plenty of space for larger motorhomes.
