Course and featuresThe Shaw River rises near {{VICcity|Macarthur}} and flows generally south, across a coastal plain,[2] joined by three minor tributaries before reaching its confluence with the Eumeralla River in Lake Yambuk. The Eumeralla empties into Portland Bay in the Great Australian Bight south of Yambuk. The river descends {{convert|174|m}} over its {{convert|51|km|adj=on}} course.[1] The river is traversed by the Great Ocean Road near its confluence with the Eumeralla River in Lake Yambuk, at the Yambuk Important Bird Area.
