7 brilliant Australian beaches for non-swimmers

Australian beaches for non-swimmers: Palm Beach, Sydney

Palm Beach, the northernmost beach in Sydney, provides the most beautiful beach walk in Australia. The beach gets quieter and quieter as you follow it along to the Barrenjoey Lighthouse at the top of the Barrenjoey Peninsula. Palmy also has the bonus of celeb-spotting – it doubles as Summer Bay in Home and Away, and the cast is frequently spotted filming here.
