coastal cliff walk

hi everyone..

apparently it's possible to walk along the entire coastline of sydney on walking tracks winding around beautiful beaches, along towering sandstone cliffs, and in and out of the gorgeous sydney harbour. a distance totalling 100 km.

i like to do much shorter sections myself..
this was our sunday walk.

sit back and enjoy the view

this part of the coast isn't far from the south head walk i took you on a while ago..along massive sandstone cliffs near the entrance to sydney harbour.



still a few happy pink hibiscus flowers around



we once lived close to here and this was my spectacular morning walking track.


if you're lucky you might see a whale or two.


the calm before the storm

the weather has now turned and whipped up some big seas and wild weather.



beauty all around..

i love being on the edge of the vast ocean

macquarie lighthouse  
australia's first lighthouse built in 1818

hope you enjoyed the scenery!

  5. Nothing better than walking on the edge!! The cliffs are amazing. And the lighthouse looks almost like some sort of a temple (at least to me it does). Very unique. Thanks for sharing!!

  6. Oh I know this place well :-) gorgeous isn't it. Lucky thing to have lived so close for this to be a regular walk.

    p.s. I hope those rock climbers know what they're doing!
