TOP 5 BEACHES TO VISIT THIS SUMMER

ELSOC’s Publications team presents to you our top five recommended beaches to visit this summer (or during the term) as the weather begins to warm up. Despite the fact that beaches and electricity aren’t a great mix, we at ELSOC have finalised our favourites:

🌊 Manly Beach

With a jump rock, cave, rock pools, and a beautiful beach, Manly is our top pick for summer fun!

฀ Cronulla Beach

Cronulla’s clear waters and relaxed atmosphere make it a perfect spot for a swim or a coastal walk.

฀ Coogee Beach

Close to UNSW, Coogee offers rock pools and access to the famous Bondi to Coogee coastal walk.

🌅 Gordon’s Bay

Gordon’s Bay features clear waters and scenic views, ideal for snorkeling or enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

🏄♂฀ Maroubra Beach

A popular surfing destination, Maroubra’s waves and its proximity to UNSW make it a top choice for beachgoers and surfers alike.

Thank you guys for reading this far! We hope you enjoy a great start to the term. The academic comeback is ON!

Another day, another slay,
