Comment on TIL about Jervis Bay Territory

Yeah it’s a super weird place, administratively speaking.
It’s treated like part of the ACT for some reasons, like federal elections, and receives most municipal services from the ACT government, but it is not part of the ACT for territory elections.
There’s also basically no reason to ever go there unless you’re in or supporting the military bases located there.

It does have some rather pretty beaches, best to plan on checking out all that’s there to make it feel worthwhile as they sting you $20 to see them.
wtf, you have to pay to see a beach? That’s fuckin’ unaustralian!
It’s not a fee for the beaches per se but the fee for entering the national park which covers the territory (though it is in effect paying to see beaches as that’s the main reason to visit).

I disagree. It’s absolutely stunning.
