Eastern Beaches Coastal Walkway

From Bondi Beach (Sydney, New South Wales, Australia),

to Maroubra Beach, a few kilometres to the south,

a walkway has been constructed,

to enable easy walking between those two points along the coast,

in order to enjoy the scenic views and places of interest along the way.

Here is a sign, just south of Coogee Beach,

showing the route, along the stage from Clovelly Beach to Maroubra Beach. 

I went for a walk from Maroubra Beach to Coogee Beach on Saturday,
a distance of  5.3 km. It took me  3  hours, but I was taking my time  :)

Here are some of the things of interest along the way -

Mahon Pool  -  a rock pool, carved into the rock, where swimmers can bathe in
relative safety, while enjoying the crash of the waves over the edge and into the
pool.

Lonely cairn  -  which is actually
a survey point, on the headland at
the Jack Vanny Reserve. This is
the aspect looking east, out towards
the sea (The Pacific Ocean).

Below, is a panorama of the aspect
looking west.
On the left, you can see the headland
just to the south of Maroubra Beach.
On the right, you can see the
coastal headlands up to the one just
north of Bondi Beach.

The Ivo Rowe Pool - a natural rock
pool, carved into the rock, and used
by swimmers.

The walkway, looking south.

The Trenerry Peat Swamp - a peat swamp which has been carefully restored,
in the Trenerry Reserve, and which sits in a small basin, high up on the edge of
the cliff. Researchers from the University of New South Wales (UNSW),
have found history dating back 1,000 years in this swamp.
