Tattoos in Shellharbour
Shellharbour's tattoo studio is in Albion Park
Albion Park sits inside the City of Shellharbour, so for most of the city this is the local shop. From the Shellharbour city centre it is about ten minutes to the studio at 155 Tongarra Rd.
01The trip
Getting here from Shellharbour
From the city centre, take New Lake Entrance Road out to the Princes Motorway and come off at Tongarra Road. The studio is under a kilometre along, at number 155. It is about 7 km, and ten minutes unless the motorway is having a day.
Coming from Shellharbour Village or the marina end of town adds a few minutes: call it a quarter of an hour. Warilla, Barrack Heights, Oak Flats and Shell Cove are all in the same city and all a similarly short run.
02The studio
Why people in Shellharbour come to Tongarra Rd
There are several artists working out of the one room here, which means there is usually someone free for a walk-in and someone suited to whatever you have in mind. Black and grey realism is the bulk of what comes through the door, alongside colour and traditional, fine line and script and lettering.
The studio moved up the road from 122 to 155 Tongarra Rd in 2026. If you last came in at the old shop, it is the same road, just further along.
Everything is drawn for you. Bring a reference, a rough idea or a photo of something you like the feel of, and your artist draws a piece that is yours. You sign off on the drawing before anything touches skin.
