More than two kilograms of drugs and four guns have been seized during raids on the NSW south coast.

Four men were charged following Friday's large operation at five homes in Shoalhaven and Lake Illawarra that netted 714 grams of crystal methamphetamine, or ice, worth about $150,000, as well as 1.8 kilograms of cannabis, steroids and four guns.

"Officers also seized a large amount of property suspected of being stolen including motor vehicles, a boat, a caravan, poker machines, tools, computers, ammunition and cash," police said.

The raids came after three men, 29, 31 and 35, were arrested in the car park of a fast food outlet at Haywards Bay earlier on Friday.

Another man, 26, was arrested after the searches.
