About this drive

The Quokka Guide South Coast Wine & Scenic Drive Tour is a relaxed journey through one of New South Wales’ most beautiful coastal regions, blending boutique wineries, charming country villages and dramatic ocean scenery.

Your day begins among the rolling vineyards of Crooked River Estate, a stunning coastal winery overlooking the hills surrounding Gerringong. With the ocean only minutes away, the vineyard enjoys cooling sea breezes that help produce elegant cool-climate wines. It’s the perfect place to begin the tour, offering a relaxed tasting experience surrounded by peaceful countryside.

From here, the drive continues north through lush dairy farmland toward the beloved village of Berry. Berry is widely regarded as one of the most charming small towns on the South Coast, known for its historic streetscape, boutique shops and vibrant café culture. Visitors can stroll the tree-lined main street, browse local galleries, enjoy artisan food or sample the famous Berry donuts.

Leaving the village behind, the journey moves deeper into the Shoalhaven Valley to visit Silos Estate. Named after the historic grain silos that stand on the property, this vineyard reflects the region’s long agricultural heritage. Here, rolling farmland meets modern cool-climate winemaking, offering visitors a relaxed countryside cellar-door experience.

Next, the tour climbs gently to one of the most scenic vineyard locations in the Shoalhaven at Two Figs Winery. Perched high above the Shoalhaven River, the cellar door offers breathtaking panoramic views across the river valley. Boutique wines, peaceful surroundings and sweeping landscapes make this one of the most memorable stops of the day.

Finally, the tour returns to the coast for a spectacular natural finale at the famous Kiama Blowhole. Here, powerful ocean swells surge through a volcanic rock formation, sending dramatic bursts of water high into the air. It’s one of the most iconic natural attractions along the New South Wales coastline.

Throughout the journey, the tour reveals the diversity of the South Coast — from vineyards and farmland to rivers, villages and rugged ocean cliffs.


The Quokka Guide South Coast Wine & Scenic Drive Tour is perfect for travellers who want more than just winery visits. It’s a day of discovery combining wine, scenery, local culture and some of the most beautiful landscapes in the Shoalhaven region.
