Avalon
Avalon
'Baywatch' wanted to film here. But the locals said "on yer bike", meaning - NO. This is a place of tranquility.

Avalon, Sydney (northern beaches)

This is the place surfers and people who were into herbal teas during the 1970’s and 1980’s have ended up. And who would blame them. Avalon is a sensational place. It’s got a great beach, great views, plenty of trees, good cafes, and a welcoming village feel. Natural therapies abound and a holiday feel is ever present.

On weekends, the village fills up with locals who generally tend to be of an older age, with the style of inner urban-ites, but without the pretense. Sure, it’s about an hour or more away from the city centre by bus, but who cares when you have paradise on your doorstep.

The only downside to Avalon is it's rapidly changing from a laid back, chilled out sort of place, to one where cashed up baby boomers are moving, opening upmarket stores. But if these flash shops annoy you, head to North Avalon - it's still low key. (More information below and to your left <<<)
