| Swimming and snorkeling in a shallow cove. This is about the safest snokelling spot I can think of in Sydney. There are always many fishes around. If you haven't done snorkeling before, this is a good chance to learn. You need to buy a properly fitted snorkel. Bring drinks, snacks, sun protection and towel. There is a kiosk at the beach.
We are starting the day late because low tide is at 5 pm. We might finish the day with dinner at a pub. Surf.
