Best spots to snap a selfie
Café Macquarie Mural, Belmont
This café’s owners have taken a jaw-droppingly colourful approach to blocking out graffiti on their building’s external walls – a giant wildlife mural. It’s one of more than 10 street art projects adorning walls throughout Belmont.
Catherine Hill Bay
Catho's idyllic shore break, old coal-loading jetty and heritage-listed village make it a must-see for shutterbugs.
Belmont Wharf
Beautiful all day long, but at sunset it really comes alive.
Gap Creek Falls
This secluded spot in Watagans National Park is a great reminder that natural backdrops are often the best. A rainforest path at the end of Bangalow Road winds past red cedars and a massive Illawarra flame tree before opening up to Gap Creek Falls and its 40m sheer drop.
