Mystery Bay is a small town on the south coast
of New South Wales, Australia.
Mystery Bay is halfway between Central Tilba
and Narooma, two kilometres off the Princes
Highway on Mystery Bay Road. At the 2011
census, Mystery Bay had a population of 248
people.
Mystery Bay features a camping area in the
Eurobodalla National Park.
Mystery Bay holds many different types of
beaches that front the Tasman Sea. Some
beaches are surfing beaches, others are
swimming beaches, and a lot of these beaches
contain spectacular large rocks. At low tide,
these rocks become rock pools.

The bay itself is the location where the
abandoned wreck of a small boat was
discovered in mysterious circumstances in
1880. The boat had carried Lamont Young, a
government geologist inspecting new
goldfields on behalf the New South Wales
Mines Department together with his assistant
Max Schneider, and boat owner Thomas Towers
and two others, from nearby Bermagui. None
of the five men were ever seen again, and
Mystery Bay was named after their unexplained
disappearance.
