Just two kilometers south of the coastal haven known as Merimbula, YMER features a single asphalt 1602 x 30m RWY and regularly hosts regional commercial flights run by REX and Qantas.

 

Facilities

There aren’t any flying clubs that run out of YMER, but if you plan to fly in there’s a good chance you will meet Tracy, CEO, and CFI of Merimbula Air Services. Tracy will welcome you in for a tea or coffee, plus there's also a rooftop deck you can enjoy when you touch down. Contact Merimbula Air Services on
(02) 6495 1074 if there’s anything you need.

Getting Around

Tracy has a courtesy car available for people flying in. Many car rental agencies also operate out of YMER including Europcar, Hertz, and Avis. Hop on a public bus to the township of Merimbula and beyond. Taxi services are readily available to pick you up as needed.

Eat & Drink

If you’re a lover of seafood, you’ve come to the right place. Book yourself in for a tour at Wheeler’s Oyster Farm and Restaurant. Visitors come from far and wide to sample their world-class oysters – they’re as fresh as they come! Wash down your lunch with a tasting paddle at Longstocking Brewery. There are plenty of great eating spots in and around the Merimbula promenade after a big day on the water.

Explore

With Merimbula to the north and Pambula to the south, you’re spoiled for choice when it comes to stunning beaches, spectacular wilderness, and abundant natural beauty. Just 30 mins drive south and you’ll find Twofold Bay, one of the best places for whale watching in the country (Aug-Nov). Walk through Tea Trees and along the cliff topics to Tura Head and enjoy rock pool rambling, fishing, and breathtaking views.

Stay

There is no shortage of beautiful coastal holiday homes and self-contained apartments where you can sit back and take in the fresh ocean breeze. More budget-friendly options include holiday parks and motels.
