No. 8 of my big beach walk: Narrabeen to South Dee Why Beach: 11 Jan 2012

Mei and me still looking fresh and a bit windblown at the start of the walk.

I had a 'guest walker' today, my sister-in-law Mei. She's the one with the big hair! We had a great walk from the southern end of Narrabeen beach, ploughing along though the sandy beaches, only hitting rocky paths half way along. Mei had worn walking shoes in preparation for cliff top walking, but we only got a little of that once we reached Long Reef Point.

We discovered Long Reef Point, Long Reef Golf Club as well as the golf coffee stop.
Below is a selection of piccies from around Long Reef Point.

Further south, Long Reef beach is separated from Dee Why Beach by Dee Why Lagoon. Getting from one beach to the next involved getting our feet (and our bums) wet! Luckily we didn't have to swim, fortunately Mei was up for a wade, wet shorts and all!

Jenny testing the waters of the outlet - it got deeper and the current stronger, but the little kids on their floaties managed to cross, so we had to too.

Then it was on to our lunch stop - fish and chips of course - a walk past the obligatory sea pool - well used on this gorgeous sunny day, and home.
Highlights: it was great walking with Mei on such a gorgeous day, she was up for anything, never ever asking 'are we there yet'; we managed to both talk non stop the whole way as well as doing the longest walk so far, who knows how long but it looks pretty long on my map; and does anyone know what this rusty pole on Dee Why Beach is for (please don't say sewage outlet!!).
