Better traction in the middle lane here. No need to worry about catching up with the other swimmers swimming laps in your lane. A great pool. Unlike the Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre, I had to go into the slow lane here once, and yet I enjoyed uninterrupted swimming, and achieving results in half the time than in the fast lanes at other pools. Quite large and spacious. Great range of classes and learn to swim programs. The showers stay on until you turn off the taps in the change room facilities here. Soap is available too. Again a great pool. Fairly good rates. Location wise, excellent. Only a short stroll from Central train station.

Little Bay Beach is a gorgeous little spot, still not very well known. It's the last sand beach…read morebefore Botany Bay. Because it's a sheltered cove, there isn't any surf, but the place is great for paddling and snorkeling. Don't be put off by its proximity to Long Bay Gaol, or by its proximity to Malabar sewage treatment -- they've got that stuff all sorted out now, right? Little Bay Beach has wonderful sandstone outcrops, perfect for having a picnic with friends, and a nice mix of sun and shade. The abundance of little outcrops and cave-like spaces means you often find canoodling couples in various states of undress, spread out on towels and picnic blankets, with grapes, hummus and watermelon strewn about ... it gives the whole place a relaxed, bacchanalian sort of feel. There was an old hospital in Little Bay (long since closed down), which used to make the entrance to the beach quite creepy. In recent times they've built a housing subdivision at the old Prince Henry Hospital site, so the place isn't quite so spooky or derelict, but the development isn't too close to the foreshore, so you can't see buildings when you're sitting at the beach. It was quite a creepy hospital: used during the Bubonic plague in 1900. There are still a few heritage hospital buildings around, otherwise the rest of the structures are very new. There is a golf course nearby, but the risks of getting hit on the head by a golf ball are probably lower than your average Sydney bluebottle sting risks, so I reckon it's worth it. Little Bay achieved art-world fame back in 1969, when Christo wrapped it up in fabric. The whole bay. There are some great photos of it here: http://kaldorartprojects.org.au/project-archive/christo-and-jeanne-claude-1969 Little Bay's remoteness means that you can still find a park, if you drive there. But it is also accessible by bus. Just go down Anzac Parade, almost forever... The best bit? Feels like a holiday retreat, but it's in Sydney. The worst bit? No waves. Flat as a tack.

If I had to describe this beach in one word it would be WHOLESOME…read more Perfect beach for the whole family. We got there around 1030am on a Saturday and found street parking right away. I hear that some like to park in the church parking lot but that sounds a bit sinful doesn't it? After we made our way down the stairs past the golf course, we had the tough decision of either going right which has more sand but densely populated or left which is a bit rockier but not as crowded. We went left and it was the best decision. Don't expect to be hanging ten out here as the waters are almost as calm as a lake. You'll find little schools of tiny fish swimming around at your ankles as you make you way out deeper into the ocean. The water was colder in some areas than others which was a perfect escape from the searing heat. People snorkeling, parents giving their children an oceanography lesson, cuties sunbathing and just a laidback vibe in comparison to Bondi. Bring your swimmers, your sunblock, your good vibes and get ready for a good time!

I landed flat on my behind and ended up with a black bruise the size of Tokyo city. This I might add was immediately after my neighbor had done the exact same thing bar the bruise which was on the other cheek. Anyway... my point is I have the passion but not the know how or talent when it comes to skating and you need at least the fearless passion to give some of the jumps at this skate park a go. As you can see by the pictures there are rails, stairs and 2 metre jumps. Most of the time I walk past it's filled with a dozen or more kids ranging from ages 5 to 15. The little ones are often padded up with helmets whilst mums watch from the side. The bigger kids have the cool factor going on but are harmless enough. It's not an intimidating atmosphere - no graffiti, no smoking - it's more of a "lets carve this place up dude". With phrases like this... now I'm showing my age. No lights for night use. Right next to a bus stop and a leafy golf course but also on a busy section of Ernest Street.

There's plenty of parking for each one of the separate fields and during the week they're full.
