Just north of Sydney is a huge river mouth; a great sailing location with secluded bays, beaches and anchorages. We wanted to spend some time here away from the city. to test ourselves and the boat off-grid, with the option to put in somewhere for repairs of spares if needed.
Being the middle of winter, it was pretty much empty. A lovely area, but Rose and Tilly had come down with a nasty flu, so we took it very slowly and spent a few days not doing very much while they recovered. Thankfully, the endless weeks of Sydney rain had eased up and the weather was good.
We spent time on a mooring at Cottage point, on moorings off Hallets beach and Cottage Rock, as well as another night in Refuge cove where we managed a walk up to the top of the waterfall.
