Freshwater is in the heart of the northern beaches and the sky is the limit for how long you can spend here and what you can do.

Start with coffee at the Freshwater Cafe or The Pocket Cafe at the beach, or maybe try out the highly rated Pilu At Freshwater which opens for lunch and dinner. The Harbord Hotel is a block back from the beach with a laid-back vibe, great for fish and chips and a beer to celebrate your achievement.

There’s a beach carpark and there tends to be plenty of parks in the streets within a short walk.

Regular buses (route 139) run hourly from Manly Wharf.
