Cronulla Beach Walk

The Cronulla Beach Walk follows more than four kilometres of the Shire’s coastline south from Wanda Surf Lifesaving Club to Bass and Flinders Point, where the Hacking River meets the Tasman Sea. The pathway passes stunning beaches, child-friendly rock pools, parks, playgrounds, cafes and period houses interspersed with lavish new homes and apartments overlooking the water. In the morning you’ll see locals out for a run or walk with friends, and swimmers striking out to the yacht buoy or Shark Island. In summer, watch nippers and lifesavers train and enjoy a dip at one of the many beaches along the walk. Everyone is out, from new mums with prams, families and kids on scooters to the stalwarts of Cronulla on their way to the RSL for lunch or a game of bowls. The footsteps on this walk have echoed since the early 1900s when Cronulla Beach was the place for Sydneysiders to holiday, and it remains a popular and social walk.

We walked from Elouera Beach to Bass and Flinders. Lovely walk, take your swimmers and stop to swim in the rock pools along the way at Cronulla Beach, Shelly Beach and Oak Park.

North Cronulla Beach

Reviewed By xiaodongw465 - Shelly Beach, Australia

My favourite beach in Sydney, ideal for swimming and coast walking. Compare to Bondi, it is less populated but more beautiful and tranquil

Shelly Beach RockPool

Reviewed By mrdom

It's got a big park behind the rocks and the big pool (could be deeper) but a bit away from the more crowded parts of Cronulla. This whole coast has a good path along it (particularly good because bikes aren't allowed) and Oak Park further south is even nicer (except for a shallower pool) plus there's good snorkelling further along at Salmon Haul Bay. A real Sydney gem that I wish I'd discovered earlier.
