๐Ÿ“ธ WHAT TO EXPECT:
๐Ÿšถโ€โ™‚๏ธSea Cliff Bridge is a section of the famous Grand Pacific Drive, which starts just south of Sydney and stretches down the coast of New South Wales.
Built in 2005 to replace a dangerous section of road that was prone to rockfalls, the new S-shape road stretches out over the ocean and seemingly floats off the coastline as if itโ€™s magically weightless.
๐Ÿณ It is also a great viewing platform for whale sightings during migrating season.
๐Ÿšถโ€โ™‚๏ธUpon arrival at Coalcliff station, weโ€™ll head down to Coalcliff Beach public toilets for a quick rest stop. Toilets at the station most probably closed on weekends.
๐Ÿ We will continue our journey passing through few gorgeous beaches - Coalcliff, Scarborough, Wombarra and Coledale.
๐Ÿฅง We will have a lunch break at Coledale Beach RSL.
