A drive along the narrow gravel road, a 15-minute hike, and then … the magic unfolds.
84 km from Sydney, towards the north, are some of the gorgeous beaches and lookouts. I am in a fix now, wondering if Central Coast is better than South Coast.
In my previous post, I took you to the serene locations of Ettalong Beach. Although it was sunny, the cold winds made me hug my sarape a little more tightly We drove down Umina city, and ordered fish and chips from Mum’s Seafood Kitchen, before making our way to Warrah Lookout. Oh, the fish and chips – they were fresh and delicious!!!
Keep checking your GPS and look for the turn towards the lookout. We were so engrossed in eating and drinking (coffee I mean) that we missed the turn and had to drive 4 km extra before we found a spot to make U-Turn.
Short Hike to Warrah Lookout
When I said Magic unfolds, I wasn’t lying was I?
Hawkesbury River
The water seems so unbelievably calm. The whole scene looks straight out of a movie. I stayed there for a long time, feeling the breeze, watching the blue horizon, the sails – soaking in as much as I could. No doubt, it’s a beautiful photography location.
Afar is the Barrenjoey Lighthouse, which I have often seen from the other side.
One doesn’t simply stay calm and not strike a touristy pose 🙂
And a dreamy pose too … Even my clothes are color coded 🙂
The lookout point is barricaded by fences, but since I was snooping around for a better “dreamier” spot, I found this lonely rock, safe and secure, but with the best view 🙂
Oh man! those pictures are fabulous and that place – a repeat visit needed. Right?
Love your pictures!
