Green Point and its near neighbour Camp Cove can be combined on a short and very satisfying walk from Watson's Bay wharf. The walk firstly takes you down a couple of streets of beautifully restored 19th century cottages - now each worth millions, I'm sure. At Green Point, which in itself is a fairly unremarkable bump of a headland, you are rewarded with fantastic views of Sydney Harbour, with the CBD skyline visible in the distance. It seemed popular with spearfishermen when we visited. Just beyond Green Point is Camp Cove, a small harbour beach and a truly delightful stretch of sand. The area has a couple of important monuments, one commemorating Captain Arthur Phillip's first landfall in Sydney Harbour (then Port Jackson in 1788) and the other as the southern end of the anti-submarine boom net that stretched across the harbour during WWII.

I have done this walk at least 15 times, easy to drive to and park, walk across the sand (near the kiosk) up the walk way and an easy walk out past the nudie beach to the headland walk which is a loop. There are the battlements, canon, lighthouse, the heads and then back to the view out to Manly then down the harbour back to the city. Best easy morning or sunset. Sometimes it gets a bit hazy from lunch to late arvo (but not always) - and it is still worth the walk.

Grab some take away fish and chips from the wharf and sit under one of the giant fig trees in the park and enjoy the view. Top spot highly recommended. Only issue is lack of parking.
