It was established in 1879 and is the worlds second oldest national park after Yellowstone. The park is 15000 hectares and includes a long ragged coastline, loads of beaches, and rolling hills, gullys and rocky outcrops covered in bush.

It is the furthest we have been from Sydney so far and made me even more keen to see other parts of this huge country.

It’s a massive decommissioned military base next to the ocean that is now mainly parkland. Then we came back to Manly to catch up with an old friend and ended up at a fancy dress volleyball party. The Mario Bros won it. Random.
