Things To Do In Sydney - Boating and Biscuiting

There is never a shortage of things to do in Sydney but when it is a glorious sunny Sydney day, there is nothing more spectacular than cruising down the waterways of one of the numerous National Parks. This day we were are at Ku-ring-gai National Park. This National Heritage listed park, a short drive north of Sydney, is 154 km²  (roughly 58 miles²  or a little smaller than Washington DC), much of which is only accessible by walking tracks or boating.


The park is a popular place for many favourite activities. There are 15km of Horse Riding trails and thousands of kilometres of Cycling trails as well as medium difficulty Mountain Bike tracks. Numerous Picnic and Barbequeing areas are scattered through the park for happy families, frolicking friends and romantic rendezvous.  


The sunken waterways of this magnificent park are probably one of it's most desirable assets for which you may Paddle Boat, Kayak,  Sail, or Motor Boat. We are the very lucky friends of a boat owner but there are also many organised tours if you are are so inclined, 





We put in at Apple Tree Bay

OK...this could be fun!

Our Skipper...Captain Visser!

It doesn't look far, but I tell you, even the big kids were hesitant!

It was time for Michelle to show us how it's done. She made it look easy but I guarantee you, it's not!!!!

We boated until the sun set which was one of the most glorious times I have spent in some time...
