Beach Walks Sydney

Oak Park to Salmon Haul Bay Snorkel.

**Snorkelling from Oak Park to Salmon Haul Bay, Cronulla.** We can meet at the end of Jibbon Street at 11.00am. [https://goo.gl/maps/cpP8w1NDVv52](https://goo.gl/maps/cpP8w1NDVv52) This time is close to the peak of the high tide where the visibility should be at its best and the current at its lowest. Feel free to stay around Oak Park if you don't feel confident with the snorkel to Salman Haul Bay. Or if it is rough there, feel free to walk round to Salmon Haul Bay where it is much more protected and meet us there. Last year was indeed too rough. but we still enjoyed a snorkel at both locations, however we walked between the two. It's an easy entry point to the right of the rock pool. We can explore here for awhile before we head off on our journey. Once we reach our destination we can again explore for awhile then head back to Oak Park via the costal walking track. We can grab a coffee and something to eat after at a nearby cafe. Or follow the path to Cronulla. Looking forward to seeing you there. NB; Our regular Sunday weekly Un-hosted Snorkel will still be going ahead at Shelly Beach.

Snorkeling at Freshwater Beach

Freshwater is a beautiful beach just North of Manly. As it is an open beach, it will be subject to surf conditions, and would not be suitable for absolute beginners even in very calm conditions. That being said, we can have Fairlight Beach as a back up plan if it is too rough. We can meet in the car park above the ocean pool at 11am and make a decision once we see what it is like. [https://goo.gl/maps/rsoULhHoAk72](https://goo.gl/maps/rsoULhHoAk72) If one of our locals can get there early and let us know if it is suitable that would be great. The only Beach Cam I could find is this. [https://brasurf.com.au/cam/freshwater](https://brasurf.com.au/cam/freshwater) So, keep an eye on the group chat.

Shelly beach walk and afterwards included free drink at Peppers resort.

Our walking group is a fabulous Melting Pot of cultures, backgrounds, professions and life experiences. We love our Walks. We are INCLUSIVE OF EVERYONE………if you’re: kind, nice, fun, polite and respectful. 🌸😘🌸 On that note…. In recent times my walks are at capacity, which I’m capping at 40. Regulars, regardless of numbers are always welcome….just PM me if you’re on a waitlist. 🌸♥️🌸 We walk at a medium pace of 4kms per hour, stopping for breaks and to take in the views. It is a reasonable expectation that the group stays together. It is your responsibility to stay in line of sight. If you cannot walk at this pace, I will let you know of the next get out point. This is not negotiable. 🌸🐌🌸 As this is a walking group, bikes, ebikes, scooters, escooters, and pogo sticks are not compatible or welcome. 🌸👣🌸 Grading for my walks:
Easy: Mainly flat, suburban, loads of get out points, up to 14kms.
Easy-Medium: some stairs, a few uneven surfaces, up to 15kms.
Medium: Stairs, rocks, coastal beaches/sand, ups, downs, get out points limited, up to 17kms
Medium-Hard: uneven surfaces, need to take extreme care and be hike fit. Few get out points. Tracks, uneven surfaces, steep inclinations and limited resources. 🌸👯‍♀️🌸 WALKING GUIDELINES & RESPONSIBILITIES: 🌸✍️🌸 Carry sufficient food and water (2 litres) for the expected conditions of the walk. Pls don’t separate from the group, unless you let someone know, preferably me. The waitlist is completely discretionary….reliable regulars will ALWAYS be included. 🆗……….If you are a no show, you will not be welcome to join a future walk with me. (It’s a courtesy kind of thing). If people are on the waitlist, it is also very inconsiderate. Marking yourself as “Not Going” within 2 hours of departure does not allow reasonable time to notify anyone on the waitlist. 🌸🙅‍♀️🌸 On the odd occasion, the walk may change from the schedule, due to weather, unforeseen track obstacles OR emergency situations. 🌸🤞🌸 Please make sure your conversation is always courteous to other group members. 🌸😍🌸 PS…. IF YOUR ID PIC IS OF A COFFEE CUP, YOUR DOG OR CAT, A VIEW, and not a picture of you…You’ll stay waitlisted. 🌸❌🌸 SAFETY WARNING: Please stay away from cliff edges and be very careful when walking on wet and slippery rocks and surfaces. Stay within sight of the group at all times. 🌸🔴🟢⚫️🟠🔵🟡🟣🟤🌸 DISCLAIMER: Your health and safety is our priority, we take care to minimize risk and avoid accidents and injuries.
