Walk 16 - Dee Why Beach Collaroy Plateau

Landing Gear


Dee Why Beach

Today, a day in September ,mid  Spring, the group met in front of the Dee Why  Surf Club to tramp along the length of a long beach all the way up to the headland.   The tide was in, the waves  sent us scampering, the water was incredibly clear as you can see in the photograph.    We tramped along boldly briskly although beach sand is not easy walking.   The headland afforded excellent views of distant shores, close by Collaroy Beach and  beyond as well as  the Golf Course dotted with golf ladies on Ladies Day.
The return walk skirted the golf course back to Dee Why's Sand Bar for delicious cool fruit  frappes and smoothies.
Wendy and Carolle spent a few extra minutes strolling around the Dee Why Wildlife Refuge, an area of bush regeneration where the aim is to conserve, restore and protect native vegetation and wildlife.   Both professionals and volunteers carry out the work.  (We noticed the nasty Lantana)
Walkers : Marie-Claire, Wendy, Linzi, Carolle
