Its star attraction is the long, golden Jimmy’s Beach, perfect for swimming, kayaking, and paddling in calm, protected waters. The nearby Tomaree National Park rewards hikers with panoramic views of the bay and offshore islands, while the d’Albora Marina at Nelson Bay is just minutes away, where you can join a dolphin-watching cruise – the resident bottlenose dolphins delight visitors year-round. Corlette’s relaxed pace and leafy streets make it ideal for families; kids can chase waves, explore rock pools, or enjoy a picnic in the park. The area also boasts excellent fishing spots and a handful of waterfront cafés serving fresh seafood.
