Whale season is upon us again and record numbers of humpback whales have been seen making their way north along the NSW coast.

These five walks offer some of the best vantage points from which to see the whales blowing and breaching. The walks themselves are spectacular and they traverse some of Sydney’s best coastal paths. And even if the best you see is a tail slap or a misty spray off in the distance, at least you’ll have had some exercise.

Manly to Dee Why

This is another one of those stunning Northern Beaches walks that follows the coastline as it winds along rugged cliffs and golden sandy beaches.

Walks with Whales

Take advantage of this gorgeous winter weather to do a little whale spotting on one of these beautiful coastal walks.

Malabar Headland Walk

This is a spectacular walk and easily one of my favourites. It combines the jaw dropping ocean views of the Boora Point Track with the more subtle bushland beauty of the Western Escarpment Track.

Barrenjoey Headland Palm Beach

This is a really lovely walk, a bit hilly, but definitely worth the hike. And if you’re lucky, once you reach the top you might even see a whale!

Bondi to Watsons Bay

This walk is delightful and the trail surprisingly quiet, especially midweek. It comprises the first leg of the recently concluded and increasingly popular Bondi to Manly walk.
