Manly living
Sightseeing
Absolute favourite local spot for a swim, very Grecian feel. Get your coffee from Bower and sip it on the rocks. At high tide look at the Little pools formed and jump off the rocks into clear deep water. The pool is a nice sheltered place for a dip and to lounge in the sun.
