You can's drive down to Bungan which makes it very secluded. It is a steep path down. At low tide we will sometimes walk north around the headland to get home. It is a good walk for the sure footed.

Take a ferry to the Basin or book with Pittwater Kayak Tours and go for a paddle. It will be more than worth it. You can even catch a ferry up to the Wagstaff and Ettalong for the day.

From Church Point you can drive the back roads into the National Park. It costs to get in but the views from West Head are spectacular. There are lots of walking tracks we wish we had done.
