The Shaw River rises near Macarthur and flows generally south, across a coastal plain,[4] joined by three minor tributaries before reaching its confluence with the Eumeralla River in Lake Yambuk.

The Eumeralla empties into Portland Bay in the Great Australian Bight south of Yambuk.

It was named by Major Mitchell in 1836 after General Sir James Shaw Kennedy, a Peninsular War veteran.
