Swim at Sydney's best beach

Freshwater is a great beach for families, surfers and even a snorkle.

It has an ocean pool, barbeques, cafes and shower facilities. The beach is patrolled year round.

It is known for its family friendly waves and terrible parking - but you won't have the problem if you stay at The Freshie House!

So many ocean walks to see the sunrise.
