Hiking
Pearl Beach to Patonga Walk. You can walk one way and get the bus back if you like.
Pearly Ponds. It takes about 15 mins from the house to get there with the last 5mins being steep. Follow the secret trail at the end of Emerald Ave behind the fire station to the left towards Green Point Creek and it takes you up next to a waterfall. Keep walking up to the ridge and you come to an expanse of rock that you can walk along with pools of water on it. Eventually, you come to a pool that is deep enough to have a rope swing hanging over it. The water is incredibly clear and cold. Highly recommended.
Pearl Beach to Umina Walk. You can walk down to the ‘dumpers’ end of the beach and join a trail that goes all the way around to Umina Beach. You can also walk down Coral Crescent to join the trail.
Patonga
Patonga Beach is great to walk on and unique in that you can walk up to where the river meets the sea. The Patonga Hotel has typical pub food and has a great beer garden at the front.
