The Neighborhood:
The beautiful coastal town of Austinmer stands on the rolling South Coast. Austinmer is a haven for holidaymakers, thanks to the town’s laid-back location. The area is known for its beaches, with author D. H. Lawrence having described the sands as home to “deep pock-holes that were full of brilliantly clear water and delicately-coloured shells and tiny, crimson anemones”.
Austinmer enjoys a pleasant climate, averaging 25°C in summer and 16°C in winter.
The original inhabitants of this land were local Dharawal communities of Aboriginal people. After settlement, the area was first named Sidmouth, and by the 1860s it was known as North Bulli. The name Austinmer was officially adopted in 1895. The town’s early industries were coal, salt, and blackberries before it became a tourism destination in the early 20th Century. Several historic buildings are still operating, including Austinmer Railway Station (1887), and the Austinmer Public School (1866).
Thirroul, only minutes away and has become rapidly gentrified in recent years, giving rise to cool cafés, chic restaurants and boutique shops. Wollongong is only 20 minutes, what’s not to like, with an urban vibe bustling with quality dining, quirky cafes and exciting small bars that would rival older siblings Sydney or Melbourne’s best. With its stretched blueprint defined by geography, the city inevitably spills down to a waterfront like no other.

The towns sit shoulder-to-shoulder, about an hours’ drive from central Sydney along the northern section of the Grand Pacific Drive. Austinmer is accessible from both north and south. Memorial Drive is a short distance away and connects to Wollongong, while Bulli Pass puts you onto the M1 and Sydney or south bound in no time.
The scenic Lawrence Hargrave Drive goes through the heart of Austinmer and North towards the Royal National Park.
Alternatively, travel by train on the South Coast Line, which takes just under two hours from Sydney Central (you can pick up a closer line from Sydney Airport). Sydney trains on the South Coast Line regularly stop at Austinmer Station, which is one stop away from Thirroul and its express services.
