A short drive from Sydney, you'll find the most beautiful nature escape in the Royal National Park. You feel an immediate breath of fresh air on the winding drive up to Bundeena, and are greeted with lush bushland, the sound of birds, and a peek of the ocean along the coast.
Bundeena is the quintessential Aussie town, with the cutest main street and gorgeous beach views located in the Royal National Park. When stepping into the Bundeena Holiday Shack, we were immediately taken aback by its charm. There are large windows in every room of the house, which creates this light and airy feeling, and though the style of the house brings such an old soul feeling, all the amenities have been updated.
We spent our mornings walking through the Royal National Park – Curracurrong Falls is a must see – and the sun was out with the wild flowers starting to bloom. Our evenings were spent making homemade pizzas in the kitchen while setting a cosy fire outside.
Enjoy the eight-kilometre hike from Wattamolla Beach to Eagle Rock to view the stunning three waterfalls that cascade into the ocean. Be sure to book your parking pass ahead of time for the Royal National Park.
