Get close and personal with the Northern Beaches, beyond Manly
As the jewel in the Australian crown, Sydney is one of the most spectacular travel destinations in the world.
So much so, that, at Sydney Out Back, they believe Sydney’s world-class Northern Beaches are simply too good not to be shared. And there are 21kms of unexpected surprises awaiting you both at and between Palm Beach and Manly!
Just bring your walking boots and a spirit for adventure, and they’ll take care of the rest
If a sense of excitement doesn’t justify your early start to your tour, then 21kms of gorgeous, world-class beaches and nature reserves – and photographs of conversation-stopping, locations – certainly will. As will the brisk, salty Tasman Sea spray, if you’re not wide awake already!
A local team that’s as interested and curious as you are
From the first G’Day on your Northern Beaches expedition, the friendly team at Sydney Outback will look after all the details so you can focus on enjoying every moment of your day that starts and ends in magnificent National Parks, you’ll certainly cover a lot of ground!
Your tour journeys to Sydney’s northern-most tip for a mid-grade climb to the historic lighthouse atop Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park’s Barrenjoey Headland, with its head-turning, panoramic views of Broken Bay, Pittwater and glamorous Palm Beach.
Visit the set of Australian TV series, Home & Away, before pausing at an ancient Aboriginal Engraving Site for a modern Acknowledgement of Country ceremony to pay respects to the Guringai Aboriginal people who are the area’s traditional custodians.
Together, rediscover forgotten gems
As you head southward, back towards the city skyline, you are exploring new territory for the majority of visitors to Sydney who don’t venture beyond Manly. In fact, it’s new territory for many Sydney-siders, too.
Before you reach the unforgettable North Head reserve to take in the dramatic sandstone cliffs which define the Australian coastline and an inspiring view of Sydney Harbour that is hard to match, you’ll have the chance to:
- Visit some of Sydney’s most treacherous beaches to understand why ocean rips endanger the lives of more tourists each year than do the region’s deadliest land and sea creatures
- See the waves rolling in from the headland at Freshwater Beach, home to The Duke and the Australian Surfing Hall of Fame
- Discover an ocean boardwalk and watch the waves crash into the rocks beneath at your feet
- Meet locals who hold the key to loving life on the Northern Beaches
- Gain an intimate portrait of Australian culture and history, including the famous ANZAC spirit
- Bushwalk over a headland to one of the Northern Beaches most beautiful and intimate “forgotten” beaches.
Or why not put your own spin on things?
Sydney Out Back prides themselves on taking you to out-of-the-way spots that are inaccessible to the average tourist and they will do their best to make sure that your day on the Northern Beaches is brimming with “wow” and “a-ha” moments that you won’t want to forget.
As they introduce you to true blue Australian beach culture… who knows? You may discover something new about yourself, such as how to save your own life at the beach or that you’re ‘’bonza’’ at speaking Aussie slang.
And if a day of astounding scenery wasn’t enough, there’s all the little things too
