Parsley Bay

Today we visited Parsley Bay, which is a long narrow bay in the Eastern Suburbs. The water is very shallow so you can swim out quite a long way and there is also a shark net! One of our new favourites!

Here is a location map:

Sirius Cove Reserve

This afternoon we treated Rusty to a play-date with Chris' childhood friend Julia's puppy, Brookie. We met Julia at Sirius Cove Reserve on the North Shore, which has a dog friendly beach.

We let the dogs play together on the beach for a while, then did the foreshore walk to the Taronga Zoo ferry wharf and back.

Here is a location map:

Curl Curl Beach

This morning we took Rusty to a dog friendly park at Curl Curl Beach, one of Sydney's Northern Beaches. Dogs aren't allowed onto the beach itself, but there is a lagoon at the northern end of the beach which dogs are allowed to paddle in.

Here is a location map:

This sign didn't deter the surfers!
