BEGA - NEW SOUTH WALES
Centre of the "Sapphire Coast", the Bega Valley boasts rolling green hills, beef and dairy farming and of course, the award winning cheese. 11km from the beach and less than 2 hrs drive to the snow fields, Bega is situated on some of NSW's best farming land.
Traditionally beef and dairy cattle farming, the local agricultural industry is now expanding to include native flowers, alternative energy and aquaculture.
