About Iluka (NSW)
Iluka is a small village at the mouth of the Clarence River in north-eastern New South Wales, directly across the river from the town of Yamba. Its name is thought to derive from an Aboriginal word meaning 'near the sea', and the Yaegl people are the traditional owners of the area. The town is a base for commercial and recreational fishing, and nearby the Iluka Nature Reserve protects a World Heritage-listed littoral rainforest, one of the last remaining in the Southern Hemisphere.
