Yamba boasts a strong maritime heritage that began with Matthew Flinders exploration of the Clarence River in 1799. Today' s visitors enjoy spectacular beaches, fabulous seafood and a fascinating river that is navigable 40nm upstream to the town of Grafton. Being a broad and generally deep river, boating on the Clarence is mostly free of shoal banks. Bridges are the main hazard for yachts, and arrangements need to be made in advance for the Harwood Bridge to be opened. Yamba is the home port to one of the largest commercial fishing fleets in NSW, ensuring seafood lovers have ample opportunity to enjoy the famous Yamba prawns. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
