WHALE WATCHING
Jervis Bay is also famous for whale watching, where whale migration, both north and south, can be observed as the animals pass the entrance to the bay, also frequently entering the sheltered waters to rest.
The majority of whales sighted at Jervis Bay are humpbacks, which migrate along Australia's east coast from June to November.
Southern right whales are also showing a slow but steady increase in recent years as they re-colonise former habitats, having been extensively hunted in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Other species sighted have been false killer whales, orcas, minke whales and, on one occasion, a mighty blue whale.
