It's about 5 minutes north of Merimbula.

Self Drive:

Merimbula is roughly half way between Sydney and Melbourne on the coast.

From Melbourne:

Drive east via the Princes Highway to Pambula, and follow the signs to Merimbula. You will enter Merimbula town after crossing Merimbula lake. This journey will take approximately 6 hours (driving time), depending on traffic & your speed. Allow some extra time for comfort stops along the way.

From Sydney / Canberra:

The Princes Highway from Sydney, south along the coast, will bring you to Bega. Alternatively, you can travel via the Hume Highway via Canberra . From Canberra, take the Monaro Highway to Cooma, and the Snowy Mountain Highway to Bega.

Both routes will get you from Sydney to Bega in about five hours, although during heavy traffic periods, the Canberra route is quicker. From Bega, follow the signs to Merimbula.

(If you don't need to go into Merimbula you can also approach Tura Beach from the North along Sapphire Coast Drive - from Bega take the road towards Tathra and turn right (south) after a small town called Kalaru. You will then turn left into Pacific Way - that route takes about 25 minutes from Bega).
