Where are the overall top spots in Sydney for a warm-season hang out? We break down our list of Sydney's 4 best summer spots – along with what makes each special – here:
1. Shelly Beach
Shelly Beach is located in Manly – at the southern end of the stretch of beaches along Manly. From the centre of Manly a leisurely walk along the seaside esplanade will take between 10-20 minutes to Shelly Beach, depending on exactly how leisurely you would like to make it!

2. Balmoral Beach
We chose this one as our campaign shoot location! Beautiful houses and expensive yachts, and a beach that is postioned with views over Sydney Harbour National Park and through "the Heads" - the gateway to Sydney Harbour. It's an ideal place for a quick swim and takeaway fish and chips at sunset.

3. Sydney Observatory Hill
For a park with a million dollar view, it's hard to go past the one on Observatory Hill. A popular spot with locals, workers and visitors, Observatory Hill Park offers sweeping, panoramic views of Sydney Harbour and the Harbour Bridge for free. And guess what, it's our campaign shoot location as well!
4. Pearl Bay Reserve
This heritage houseboat on the waters of Pearl Bay, Mosman, in Sydney’s prestigious lower north shore, has been restored into the most tranquil two-storey home you’ve ever seen. One of only four houseboats in Pearl Bay, it’s exclusivity is just as appealing as its history.
