Freshwater Beach

  Freshwater Beach sits along the northern beaches of Sydney, bordered by the scenic Freshwater headlands. Known for its rich surfing history, it was the location where surf lifesaving began in Australia in the early 1900s. The beach spans approximately 1.1 kilometers, offering golden sands and consistent waves, making it a popular spot for both swimming and surfing. During summer, particularly from December to February, you'll find plenty of sunbathers and families enjoying the sun. Visitors can also explore the nearby coastal walks, where they might spot local wildlife such as dolphins swimming off the shore.
