Maroubra Beach

One of my favourite things about Sydney is the bounty of gorgeous beaches within a half hour drive of, well, anywhere. Yes everyone knows about Bondi but there are so many more gorgeous beaches that are just around the corner! This Sunday I was lucky enough to get an up-close view of Maroubra Beach, a beautiful, vast expanse of rocks, sand and ocean. Although it was a bit chilly to go for a dip, there were still plenty of diehard surfers willing to brave the chilly ocean. My new friend Georgia and I lunched at Pool Cafe, before stopping for a happy-snap by the beach. I thoroughly enjoyed my buttermilk pancakes with fruit compote,

but next time I will have to try the mushroom and Turkish toast combo that Georgia ordered- it looked divine! 

Thanks for a great day Georgia!
