Bestselling authors of Sydney's Best Harbour & Coastal Walks and Blue Mountains Best Bushwalks, Katrina O'Brien and Veechi Stuart, together with series editor Andrew Swaffer, have teamed up to survey the hundreds of picnic spots and beaches in the Sydney region. The very best 130 or so of these are presented in this new guide, illustrated in full colour with superb photography and detailed maps for the larger parks and beaches. Information on picnic spots includes access, facilities - including toilets and BBQs - the local environment, views, popularity, suitability for children and water access. Beach information includes information on access, swimming, surf and snorkelling, caf's, kiosks and popularity. The guide covers the broader Sydney basin, from Springwood in the west to the coast, and from Wisemans Ferry in the north to Otford and the Royal National Park in the south.
