About South West Rocks
Situated halfway between Sydney and Brisbane and along Trial Bay in the Mid North Coast of New South Wales, South West Rocks is the perfect hideaway for celebrities who crave for privacy during their R & R.
This town was established as a village in 1896 and it is said that it most likely got its name from captains of passing ships who issued instructions to drop anchors at a position 'where the rocks of Trial Bay were kept at their southwest' - said to be the safest place to moor a vessel along this coastline in bad weather.
Population
Over the years, this vacation spot gradually turned into a residential community with a population of a little more than 4,000. Understandably, when holiday season rolls around, the population swells as those who are still tied to the cities seek a brief respite from the hustle and bustle.
The population growth has been steadily rising, with housing options and community facilities meeting the demand, with a light industrial area providing local employment.
