Eden, situated on the deep harbour of Twofold Bay, is rich in fishing and whaling history and remains a fishing town, while whaling has now become 'whale-watching' one of the key tourist attractions in the town. Eden is a picturesque and quiet town and offers a wide variety of waterway, forest and mountain attractions.

Also around Twofold Bay are the historic sites of Boydtown port which was built in the heyday of whaling. Thirty whaling boats operated from Twofold Bay in the mid 1800's and many legacies of this industry are evident in the area. Boyd's Tower, which was built as a lookout for the whalers to spot their potential catch, still stands, as does the Seahorse Inn and the Old Davidson Whaling Station. You can also see the ruins of the never completed church.

The township of Eden itself has many shops for all your holiday needs, including supermarkets, sporting requirements, fashion, restaurants and of course, souvenirs.

Licensed clubs welcome visitors and offer fine eating and entertainment day and night.

The area also offers a good range of accommodation in units, motels, hotels and caravan parks.
