Exploring Watson Bay

This is part two of the Sydney beaches series. After spending the morning at Manly, we took a ferry from Manly Wharf to Watson Bay. Watson Bay is known for stunning harbour views, gorgeous beaches and the popular fish and chips shop, Doyles on the Beach. By the time we arrived at Watson Bay, it was lunch time and the perfect time to have some take away fish and chips at Doyle’s Fisherman’s Wharf Cafe. The fish, calamari, prawns and scallop were fresh and tasty. It was a quick and cheap meal that would recommend people to try if you’re visiting Watson Bay.

The Gap is a popular lookout spot that is a short walk from Doyle’s. One one side you can see Sydney and the harbour bridge, on the other side you can see the ocean expanse. It’s definitely worth the short walk. As you explore Watson Bay you’ll also come across a number of heritage buildings and well maintained residential buildings.

While Watson Bay doesn’t seem to be as popular as some of the other beachs and bays in Sydney, I’m glad I spent a some time exploring the area. I enjoyed the fact that it’s not as crowded as popular places such as Manly and Bondi. Thanks for stopping by today.
