The Royal National Park is popular for eleven beaches, which includes the hot spot of Garie Beach, guarded by surf lifesavers in summer. The conditions are calmer at the large sand spit close to Bundeena's Bonnie Vale campground, and the other Jibbon Beach is considered as a family-friendly swimming spot. Halfway along the drift, has a huge scope of sand that is ideal for shoreline volleyball. For a freshwater plunge, try Deer Pool or Karloo Pool.
