HistoryShoalhaven is a city located in the South-eastern coastal region of New South Wales, Australia. It is about 200 kilometres south of Sydney. It is adjacent to the Tasman Sea. The South coast railway line cuts through the northern part of the city and stops at Bomaderry. As at 2013, the city has a population of 97,694. The city was named "Shoalhaven" by George Bass in 1797, when he explored the area and crossed the entryway to the river. He called it "Shoal Haven" because of the low depth of the river mouth. Vineyards and wineries in the Shoalhaven Coast region were established in the 1980s.[3] Therefore, most of them are small, but a lot of people are investing massively over the last decade.[4] Coolangatta EstateThe first vineyard in the region was planted by Alexander Berry at Coolangatta Estate on the slopes of Mt. Coolangatta. It is situated on the northern bank of the Shoalhaven River. The word "Coolangatta" means "good lookout". The estate is surrounded by vineyards. ClimateShoalhaven region has warm temperatures during the growing season. Vineyards on the north directly facing the slopes are open, well-drained and exposed to air. The only problem with the region is the unpredictable summer rainfall. The climate of the region is highly influenced by the Pacific Ocean.
