Ulladulla, New South Wales

Ulladulla has close links with the nearby historic settlement of Milton and many services are shared between these towns.

[3] The first European settler was Reverend Thomas Kendall in 1828 who started cutting Australian red cedar at Yackungarrah and Narrawallee Creek in Yatte Yattah, four kilometres north of present day Milton.

The population of the Ulladulla area, including Milton, Narawallee and south to Dolphin Point was 16,495[10] as at June 2019, having grown an average of 1.66 percent year-on-year over the preceding five years.

Pigeon House was sighted by Captain James Cook upon his journey along the eastern shores of Australia.

Pigeon House has recently been renamed Didhol in deference to the elders of the Yuin tribe, who previously inhabited the area Ulladulla was built upon.

[13] The first white Settler was Rev Thomas Kendall in 1828 who started cedar cutting at Narrawallee Creek in Yatte Yattah.

A significant element of the festival is the religious Blessing of the Fleet ceremony held at Ulladulla Harbour on Easter Sunday.

Although the accompanying celebration was cancelled due to a sharp rise in the public liability premium in 2004 and 2005, the ceremony returned in 2008.

Routes 740 and 740V run from Burrill Lake to Milton via Kings Point, Ulladulla, Mollymook and Narrawallee.

Ulladulla also has an Aldi supermarket, Bunnings, Mitre 10, Best & Less, Harris Scarfe and a K Hub store (formerly Target Country, closed February 2021).
