Shire’s Treasure #5. Takes you to Gymea. The Gymea Lily, Doryanthes excelsa,is a 6m tall perennial that is prevalent in the area. It was named by the local Eora people and became the inspiration for the suburb's name by government surveyor W.A.B. Geaves in 1855. The Gymea Lily has been adopted as a symbol of the area and features on the crest of many local organisations. Development in the area has eradicated most of the lillies but many can still be found, a few kilometres south, in the Royal National Park.
Over the last decade it has become a popular shopping and 'café culture' district with many cafés, restaurants, boutiques and gourmet food shops opened along Gymea Bay Road,
Gymea has a couple of night spots, with Tradies- Trade Union Club, Gymea Pub and The Vinyl Room which is a club for the older generation which showcases the very best of the 70’s music.
The Cache is located in the Hazelhurst Regional Gallery and Arts Centre. The centre features art galleries, art studios, a theatrette, gardens, meeting rooms, gallery shop and cafe. A number of special events are held at the gallery throughout the year.
After you have found the cache, take a look in the gallery and marvel at some of our local talent.
