About Kings Point
Kings Point is a coastal residential locality in the Shoalhaven region of New South Wales, encompassing the 2539 postcode. Situated on the southern shores of Burrill Lake, the area is characterized by its waterfront setting, native bushland, and proximity to the South Coast's broader lake and ocean systems. Demographically, it functions primarily as a quiet residential and retirement community, sharing close social and economic ties with the adjacent townships of Burrill Lake and Ulladulla.
Local life in Kings Point is centered around outdoor recreation, with the surrounding waterways supporting activities such as fishing, boating, and kayaking. While the locality itself is predominantly residential and lacks a major commercial center, residents rely on neighboring Burrill Lake and Ulladulla for essential services, retail shopping, schooling, and healthcare facilities. The area is accessed via the Princes Highway, making it a convenient base for exploring the wider Shoalhaven coastline.
The history of Kings Point is rooted in the traditional custodianship of the Yuin Nation, who inhabited the coastal lakes and forests prior to European settlement. Following European arrival in the 19th century, the region's economy initially developed around timber-getting, maritime trade, and coastal shipping, before gradually transitioning toward agriculture, fishing, and contemporary tourism. Over the latter half of the 20th century, Kings Point evolved from a rural outpost into a planned residential suburb, accommodating the growing demand for coastal lifestyle properties on the New South Wales South Coast.
