2026 DRONE SHOW, VIVID WALK & 50% off WINGS, RIBS, DRINKS!!!
Mon, May 25, 7:45 AMVIVID is back, and the drone show should be cool! Let's do it on a Monday - one of the least crowded days of the week... and we'll finish at my local pub as Monday's offer half-priced wings, ribs, and drinks (optional, as you may want to get home). **THE HIKE.** Let's meet on the grass at **Barangaroo House**. I'll post a pin in Google Maps on the day so you can find me... **545pm**. The ferry from Barangaroo to Circular Quay runs at 554pm, and it will be a perfect shot on the water for Sydney Opera House pics when it lights up at 6pm on the dot. If you're late, meet us at Circular Quay at 615pm as we jump off. *We'll get dropped at CQuay, and see Customs House, the MCA, Syd Opera House, etc... all the way to Barangaroo, King St Wharf, and the drone show starts at 730pm finishing at 740pm. It will be crowded and hard to keep the group together, so make your own way to Sporting Globe by 4Pines. I'll already be at the table.* **Sporting Globe is my local pub, so I'll grab a table... 50% off wings, ribs, selected pints, and house wine. What a deal!!! 24 wings should be like $22, so if everybody brings $11 cash, I'll order a bunch of wings / flavours at 745pm - they'll be on the table as you arrive at the pub - just make sure everybody gets their 12 - it's def enough (if you want wings, that is).** So we get to the drone show on time, I'll move at just under 4kms per hour - it's up to you to keep up. I'll post my location in live Google Maps, and all hikers must join our **[WHATSAPP GROUP HERE](https://chat.whatsapp.com/C2nbnKJ5WJo5aenEREmOFB)** (please note, I'll keep this whatsapp for the week after hike(s), so *exit it / silence it* is my advice once you complete your hike - or use it to see other hikers' cool pics). 4kms per hour is pretty slow so we can take pics, chat, laugh, and feel free to bring a roadie drrink if you fancy... Again, it's up to you to keep the pace and not get lost. **THE RULES.** a) Be on time. Honour your RSVP... or ban is likely. b) $10 Cash or PayID gratuity. c) Bring good energy, laughs, and... keep up with the pace! See you for a fun one. MJ

2026 WHALE TRAIL: Long Reef to Newport, a Coastal Stunner!
Fri, May 29, 11:30 PMThis session is easily in my Top 5 Hikes in Sydney... the bush, the beaches, the neighbourhoods, and a lush pub to finish. And? It's a star in our **2026 WHALE TRAIL** series as we smash the coast spotting whales along the way. There's something very fahkin' special about those Northern Beaches, and **Long Reef Headland to Newport is a 10/10 journey showcasting the best of the best**! **THE HIKE. LONG REEF HEADLAND TO THE NEWPORT - 15kms.** We start at **Long Reef Headland**… one of *the most stunning sections of our Sydney Coastline*, from Palm Beach all the way down to The Royal National Park. We meet there in the grass by **Long Reef Surf Life Saving Club.** **Long Reef** is 240million years old, and the views are unforgettable. We bend around **Long Reef Golf Course** and exit to a cute little beach walk at **Fisherman’s Beach** (we saw sting rays galore there last time) which finishes at **Collaroy Rockpools**… leading to **Collaroy Beach**. Admittedly, the stretch of Narrabeen Beach is either torture on the legs in the sand or a boring-as-hell street walk, so we'll jump on a 5min bus (trust me, this works) to skip it. Hiking continues at **Narrabeen Headland** and gives the most stunning views south so you'll see it all. Onward we go to **Turimetta Beach** (10/10 stunning) and **Lookout**… to the **Turimetta Headland Reserve, Warriewood Lookout & Blowhole**, **Warriewood Beach (again gorgeous), then to Mona Vale Beach (voted 6th best in the world, Conde Naste)**… **[(QUICKLY... YOU MUST JOIN OUR WHATSAPP GROUP HERE AFTER YOU HIT ATTEND HERE ON MEETUP)](https://chat.whatsapp.com/HcJO5KPN8aZ8eX0CurXW7L)** North of that? **Basin Beach. Bungan Beach**.... these two are absolutely stunning. Let's explore, then we'll make a left into Newport to easily one of the best bars in all of Sydney - **The Newport**. If you haven't been, you're going to be floored. If you have, it's probably why you're signing up to this hike! **15kms in total**. Beach walk. Inclines. And all the rest. Fitness required for this one. The **B1 bus / 199 bus are our friends all day to start, get home, and even provide some outs if you want to stop hiking and meet us at the pub.** If you parked your car at the start (there is free parking) it's super easy to bus back south. Post-pub the 199 bus is literally out the front door running every 10minutes. **THE STARTING POINT.** Coming from North or South? B1 bus gets you close, but it’s an easy transfer to the 199 bus that drops you at the **Collaroy at Pittwater Rd before Hay St stop**. Cross the road there (be careful, look at pic for the stairwell), take the trail down, and the grassy bit is our meeting point (please see pics below). It’s a little tricky, but you’ll find it. Drivers, there’s freebie parking around that area – DIY research please. See you for one of my favourite Sydney hikes!

Whale Watching: Watsons Bay to Maroubra!!! 18km Medium
Fri, Jun 5, 11:30 PM**Whale Watching Day!!! Watson’s Bay to Maroubra 18 km (Medium)** We ferry from Circular Quay to Watsons Bay and commence our walk out of South Head, and along the Federation walk, navigating Diamond Bay and Dover Heights before dropping down to North Bondi. Leaving Bondi Beach behind, we strike out for Tamarrama and Bronte, where we stop for a nice lunch break of 45 minutes. Following lunch we head for Maroubra via Clovelly and Coogee Beaches. We stop at Mistral Point before marching into Maroubra where we will invade the Maroubra Seals Club for a tasty beer (and food if desired - its pretty tasty, I have to say!), before grabbing a bus back to the City. The ocean front scenery on this walk is stunning! Hopefully we will spot **Humpback whales** during the day; it is likely that we will. We should arrive at Maroubra by about 4:30pm. Please **bring photo ID**, to gain entrance to the Maroubra Seals Club. **Distance:** 18 km **Type of Walk:** Almost the entire walk is along ocean front promenades. **Difficulty:** Medium, because of the distance. If you are unsure about the distance but would like to test yourself this is a walk for you: there are plenty of get-out points. **Walking Pace:** We will average 4.5 km per hour. **Meeting Place and Transport:** We catch the Watsons Bay Ferry from Circular Quay Wharf 2. The Ferry leaves Circular Quay at 9:45 am and arrives at Watsons Bay at 10:08am. Transport back from Maroubra is by bus; it is a high frequency service. **What to bring:** Good walking shoes/trail runners; 1.5 litres of water, refill available along the way; hydrolytes; one snack and one lunch; light rain jacket depending on conditions; sunscreen and a cap or hat with a wide brim. **LUNCH CAN BE PURCHASED AT BRONTE.** **Suggested Donation:** $10 **Pub:** Maroubra Seals Club By RSVPing to this event, you (and your guests) agree to and are bound by the terms and conditions of SOMG which you can view here: [Sydney Outdoors Meetup Group Discussions](https://www.meetup.com/sydney-outdoors-meetup-group/discussions/?eventOrigin=home_groups_you_organize) If you have any questions, please leave a comment below. I look forward to seeing you on this walk. I will post my mobile number closer to the day. Ted
