Jervis Bay (jär´vis) is a sheltered inlet of the Pacific Ocean, 10 mi (16.1 km) long and 6 mi (9.7 km) wide, SE Australia. In 1915 the harbor and part of the coast were transferred to the federal government by New South Wales. Jervis Bay, connected by rail with Canberra, 85 mi (137 km) inland, was intended to become the port of the landlocked Australian Capital Territory. When the territory gained self-government in 1988, Jervis Bay was separated and remained under the administration of the federal government. The area around the bay is a popular summer resort.

The Bay offers some of the most diversified scuba diving along the Australian east coast, regarded by many as the alternate dive site to the Great Barrier Reef. It is truly one of the most natural oases along the New South Wales coast. Protected by towering sandstone cliffs and fed by oceanic currents, its close proximity to the Continental Shelf ensures nutrient rich water and rare visitors such as Sunfish, Marlin, Tuna and even the occasional Blue Shark.
The rocky cliffs continue below the surface, forming ledges, caves and rocky outcrops. These formations provide the ultimate accommodation for approximately 250 species of fish; including giant Australian Cuttlefish, Port Jackson Sharks, Octopus, Weedy sea dragons, a wide variety of Rays and other bottom dwelling sharks.
Within the Bay, there are extensive Sea grass Meadows, which range from 2 metres to 12 metres. They protect juvenile fish and crustaceans as well as acting as a filter giving us clear water.
White sandy beaches adjoin thick un spoilt bush with the occasional small rain forest less than 200 metres from the shore. Kangaroos can be seen on some of the beaches in the mornings and dolphins are regular friends.
Two small rivers feed the Bay - Moona Moona Creek and Currumbene Creek. These are shrouded by mangroves and sea grass, which again filter the water. Large Black Stingrays up to 2 metres in diameter can be seen gliding along these waterways.
Jervis Bay boasts some of the most professional dive operations in Australia, for the novice to the professional, Jervis Bay's specialty operators offer every thing, from intimate full day and overnight charters, to shark cage diving expeditions.
