🇦🇺 Long Reef｜Sydney’s Hidden Coastal Paradise (Just 1 Hour Away!)

After seeing endless Long Reef posts, I finally visited—and it blew my mind! Even prettier than photos could capture. 🚍 How to Get There (Easy from CBD!) From Wynyard Station, take B1 Bus (sit upstairs by the window for dreamy coastal views 🎬). 1 hour later: Arrive at Collaroy. Walk 20 mins to the Long Reef Point sign (photo op! 📸). Another 20 mins: Follow signs to the beach 🏖️. The path winds past charming houses, rustling trees, and the soothing sound of waves—pure therapy. 🌿 Why Long Reef? Grassy cliffs + turquoise ocean = living painting 🖼️. Few tourists—just locals walking dogs, couples picnicking, and solo daydreamers. Epic winds (bracing but refreshing!). 🎒 Pro Tips: No shops nearby—pack water/snacks! Bring a picnic mat (perfect for grassy lounging). Sunscreen is a must—deceptively strong UV! Wear sturdy shoes (some rocky paths between sand + grass). Long Reef won’t make you gasp—it’s where you pause, breathe, and let the ocean quiet your mind. Still scrolling through my photos, each one whispering the sound of waves... Just go. #SydneyLife #HiddenGems #CoastalEscape #LongReef
