Itinerary

1. Sydney
Start your day with an easy pickup from Sydney CBD and leave the city behind as we head south into Royal National Park, where the cliffs meet the Pacific and the air already feels different. We start with a coastal hike to either Wedding Cake Rock or Eagle Rock, depending on the weather and how challenging you’d like the walk to be on the day. Both routes take you across sandstone cliffs and coastal tracks with wide open ocean views and some of the most beautiful scenery in the park.
Duration: 180 mins
2. Royal National Park
One of the oldest trails in Royal National Park, this forest path winds through tall eucalyptus trees and lush ferns, with soft ground underfoot and filtered light through the canopy. You’ll walk at an easy pace along shaded tracks, surrounded by birdsong and the fresh scent of the bush. It’s a quieter, more grounded part of the park, rich in history and feeling. Along the way, there are moments to pause, take in the textures of the forest, and simply be immersed in nature.
Duration: 30 mins
3. Wattamolla
Wattamolla Beach Picnic & Swim After the hike, unwind at Wattamolla Beach, a lagoon-style paradise perfect for a refreshing swim and picnic. Enjoy a spread prepared by a local caterer, featuring local cheeses, marinated olives, freshly made dips, crackers, falafel with hummus, dolmades, and seasonal fruit, paired with refreshing locally brewed kombucha.
Duration: 90 mins
4. Symbio Wildlife Park
Next, we head to Symbio Wildlife Park for the 3 pm koala education session. We arrive on time on purpose, as this is when the koalas are awake and moving. You’ll learn about them, see them up close and understand why this timing is so special. There’s also time to walk among kangaroos and take photos.
Duration: 90 mins
5. Otford lookout
Quick photo stop at Otford Lookout for those big coastal views, and if the ice cream truck’s there, we’ll grab a cheeky treat.
Duration: 15 mins
6. Sea Cliff Bridge
Visit the iconic Sea Cliff Bridge for a short walk and incredible ocean views before heading back to Sydney, relaxed and full of memories from the day.
Duration: 20 mins
7. Grand Pacific Drive - Sydney to Wollongong and Beyond
Grand Pacific Drive & Coastal Viewpoint After leaving the park, we’ll drive along the spectacular Grand Pacific Drive, one of Australia’s most scenic coastal routes. Soak in the sweeping ocean views and stop for photos at a panoramic lookout.
Duration: 30 mins
