Dee why walks

Our starting point is Pacific Parade, Dee Why. There are plenty of options for street parking nearby, however this will also be largely dependent on the time of year when you are visiting. As the trail begins close to Dee Why Beach and ocean pool the area can be crowded on warm weekends, particular over the summer holidays. Many exit points are along the track if you are after something a bit shorter. If you would prefer, you can check out the video directly on the Sunday Explorer YouTube channel link opens in a new window.

It would not be possible to take a pram along this route. Along the way you will pass the Ghania lookout, and later the Tea Tree lookout. From here the path is obvious the entire way. There are some little board-walked sections, which are particularly pretty and had some gorgeous wild flowers lining both sides of the trail.

After 1. The trail then descends down to the beach access is a minute from the track through the car park and you can choose to either walk along the sand which is soft so it can be a bit tiring or on the walkway behind the beach.

At the end of Curl Curl Beach, take the path behind the rock pool and the track continues at the far end of the car park. At the end of the boardwalk the track will take you up a staircase, and very briefly along the road, before you can cut onto a side trail to your left and walk along the wide rock ledges, until you reach Freshwater ocean bath.

Having said that, I definitely prefer this route, the views are great and it feels like more of an adventure. You will pass this spot on the high tide route so you could always divert to the wormhole without having to do much rock-hopping if you have taken the high tide route. From the rockpool you finish the trail by walking along the beach.

We stopped at the surf club which is where our bus stop was, but you continue on to the ferry instead, which adds on another 1km. Having the right gear can make a huge difference. Sunscreen: Cancer Council Active. With a high SPF, but not the greasy feel of other sunscreens. Check it out on Amazon. Check on Amazon or direct with Osprey. Hiking Boots: Merrell Moab for men and women. Check them out on Amazon.

Reusable water bottle: To avoid single-use plastic. Most of the parking in Manly is limited to two hours which will feel rushed given you also need to catch a bus back from Dee Why. Regular buses run between Manly and Dee Why and take around 20 minutes.
