Sydneys Best Family Beaches
When you have young children, a trip to the beach can be somewhat stressful. The good news is that Sydney has many great beaches, which are very family friendly, are sheltered, so there are no waves and most of them even have playgrounds and parks nearby. Here are some of my favourite beaches, which cater to families with young children and also their older siblings. So why not plan a day at the beach before the summer is over.
