The standout attraction is the Merimbula Boardwalk, a 2.5km scenic walkway offering breathtaking views of the ocean and surrounding coastline, perfect for whale watching during migration season. Travellers adore the unique experience of taking a scenic flight over the nearby Montague Island, where they can spot dolphins, seals, and seabirds in their natural habitat.
