Bombo Railway Station was opened in 1887 and was the original Kiama station and the last station on the South Coast Line until 1893 when the tunnel was built to Kiama. It is the closest railway station to the ocean in New South Wales.

Bombo is derived from "Thumbon", the name of a renowned headman and warrior born in this district.
