Sneaky Sydney spot #1: Flint & Steel Beach

So the trick to finding an empty beach on a Sydney weekend sadly involves some hard work!

We headed to Flint and Steel Beach near West Head - parking the car at the top of the hill and descending 150 metres in just over a kilometre and panicking the whole time about what the walk back up would be like! Still, it's a small price to pay for this kind of secluded paradise.

The snorkelling wasn't the best and there's no amenities but it's lovely to get away from the city on the weekend... pack a picnic!

The fantastic Wild Walks website has details about the 2.1km return walk.
