Amazing time with nature. There is a parking fee. It takes about 3 hours to walk to the other end and be back along the same route. Fabulous photo opportunities if you are into it. Wear good shoes as parts of the walking track is not raised. The sound of the sea and birds without vehicular noise is an experience to be had.

Came during a time where the weather was hot in our area (34°C), but cool and very windy when we went to Botany Bay National Park (26-27°C). I didn't even know that NSW declared Botany Bay as a National Park! It was a beautiful beach area, but as you can see from the pictures, a lot of cliffs. The trails have caution signs not to wander off the trails because of possible instability of the cliffs. The trails also have areas where the trail stops and begins on the other side of the rocky cliff. And the patterns on the rock were wavy grooves where the wind and rain havs eroded the rocks. Also if you come at the right season, you will also see the annual humpback whale migration. May to July and August to November.

Really enjoy this park. Great views if the heads and the Bay right across to Kurnell. Lovely spot for a picnic and a walk by the seaside. You can walk across the short bridge to Bare Island. No dogs allowed though.
