Tilba

The villages of Central Tilba and Tilba Tilba lie on the slopes of Mount Dromedary and any visit to the Sapphire & Eurobodalla Coast is not complete unless you journey there.
Many of the buildings were constructed in the late 1880s and at its peak, when there was a gold mining boom, Central Tilba boasted a School of Arts, library, hotel, two butchers, a blacksmith, post office, court house, general store, police station, doctor, shoe maker and nine other businesses. When mining declined, Central Tilba remained viable due to the success of the local cheese industry. Since the decline of this industry, Central Tilba has depended on visitors for its survival and through the efforts of the townspeople. The National Trust classified the entire township in 1974 signifying the importance of preserving a unique part of Australia’s heritage.
The town has become the centre for Arts and Craft on the Far South Coast. You can see the works of local artists  and leather craftsmen and browse through the unusual clothing, antique & jewellery shops. Try some home made Tilba Fudge!  We recommend Gulaga Gallery and Studio Corner.
With the stunning blue waters of Wagonga Inlet surrounding the town, and Gulaga (Mt Dromedary) in the background, Narooma is one of the most picturesque places on the Far South Coast.
Delightful timber buildings, like Narooma's historic Uniting Church, reflect the area's early dependence on sawmilling.
