I followed the coast path leading to Spring Cove, a calm walk away from the crowd.
After a few meters, I got welcomed by this beautiful octopus.
But this was only the beginning. In the next little wood, I suddenly heard something big moving... I thought I was back to prehistory!
Waterdragons can get quite big. This one was about 60 cm. But he didn't seem to like getting his picture taken very much.
Anyway, I was the only one being amazed by his presence. Everyone else was just passing by, without even watching it. And later on I understood why... There were dozens of them sunbaking!
This part of Sydney seems to be quite rich in wild life... But I haven't seen any of those cute bandicoots.
After about two hours, this was Collins Beach. A magnificent wild little place, still in its virgin state.
A bit further in Spring Cove, it seemed that everything had stayed untouched...
It is hard to imagine that in the 1920s, this place was chosen as a gasworks site.
But the factory closed in 1964 and some years later, the whole area was cleaned, becoming the perfect place to spend a day out.
A little walk brought me to the wharf, and after a ferry ride, here I was again, in the city.
