Mid-week visit to Palm Beach was wonderful on a sunny day. Basically 10 people on the whole beach!! Lovely spot. Perfect beach!

Beach located on Sydney's northern peninsula.
Whale Beach is a gorgeous spot, a relatively small beach of clean sand and sparkling water, defined by massive headlands at either end. The beach is patrolled and so swimming is quite safe - and there is lovely pool carved into the rock platform at the beach's southern end. It has long been one of my favourites in the Sydney area. The only negative is access: the beach is tricky to reach by public transport so basically you need a car to come here, and then parking is extremely expensive if you aren't a local resident. Unfortunately, free street parking is very hard to come by, too.

A nice walk through the bush and along the cliffs from Manly Bay to Shelly Beach with lots of great outlooks along the way. Some areas require stabile footing due to rocks. Glad we wore trail running shoes. And we did this all in torrential rains. Still loved it.

We were fortunate enough to get balmy weather while we were visiting this serendipitously beautiful beach.Therefore we could really enjoy a stunning time sunning ourselves and drinking in the scenery as well as a delicious beverage transported thither in a picnic basket.

This Sydney Harbourside beach is a real gem. Perfect for families with safe swimming, playground, grassy park areas and food options. Also great for walking and flat, well maintained footpaths and plenty of shade make it easily accessible for wheelchairs, walkers and those whose mobility may be not as good as it once was. Plenty of parking but that can be expensive if there for a few hours. Perfect picnic spot but don't eat right near the water's edge as the seagulls are feral and aggressive.

This is a beautiful beach with surf and golden sand. It is patrolled by surf-lifesavers, so it's best to swim between the flags OR in the excellent ocean baths on the southern end of the beach. Council has also provided a shower/tap for rinsing salt and sand off before you go home. There are plenty of seats (in both sun and shade) and a grassy area and children's playground. Just one block back from the beach are restaurants, cafes and other shops (with parking available).

Bilgola Beach may be just a few hundred metres long but what it lacks in size it more than makes up for with its charm and natural beauty. The beach itself ticks lots of boxes, golden sand, sparkling clean water and flanked by two imposing headlands. And the natural beauty is enhanced by the narrow, protected valley behind the beach. While there is a small community of (expensive!) houses here, they are surrounded by mature trees and remnant rainforest. It really does look like a subtropical paradise. Not much in the way of amenities here, just a toilet block, an excellent little kiosk and at the base of the southern headland large ocean baths for safe swimming / doing laps. (There is a surf club and the beach is patrolled.) I am very envious of the lucky few who actually get to call Bilgola Beach home.

Bronte Beach, sandwiched between the bigger Bondi and Coogee beaches, is a cozier stretch of sand and surf perfect for families.
This beach can get very crowded at weekends, but for the rest of the time it is a joy. The changing rooms at the end furthest from the swimming pool and much roomier. The picnic huts are tidy and clean. You can always swim in the sea, as there is a protected 'pool' within the sea. Running behind the beach and green are some good breakfast restaurants.

One of Sydney's premier inner harbour beaches. Walk along the pristine sand, swim in the refreshing waters or throw a line in and catch yourself dinner. Parking can be a challenge on weekends.
