Being slightly off the main thoroughfare through Sydney’s northern reaches plays in its favour – this beach isn’t as busy as Palm Beach to the north. The name is not misleading - during whale migrations the giants of the sea can be spotted frollicking off the coast, and if you want a fancy getaway the luxe boutique hotel Jonah’s is perched up high on the ridge surrounding the beach.
