This is an iconic-Sydney eatery / market / everything amazing. It gets busy on weekends if you want a table, but it's still worth going and you can wander the market stalls for food instead as well. They even have a pet pig named 'Kevin Bacon' who gets walked around the grounds. As described on the website "Located in a former industrial precinct from the 1920s, The Grounds of Alexandria is a landmark coffee roastery, café and sustainable garden known for its abundance of fresh produce and hands-on experiences."

Beautiful calm, clear waters- I have been fooled thinking I was in the Maldives when I've visited! The Boathouse on Balmoral beach is a great place for a spot of lunch or a drink.

Long stretches of white sand, beachy sea-side town and some great eateries! There's a lot of surfing here, if that's your thing. If you're here in whale season, they are often seen out in the bay. Cronulla also has a 'sea pool', which is great to feel a bit more protected from waves (and sharks!).
