Beach lifestyle at Mosman
There are plenty of water sports for the whole family around Mosman and Balmoral. Try snorkelling in sheltered waters, sailing or a dive course at Chowder Bay where you may be lucky enough to see tiny sea horses.
About Mosman
Positioned on the harbour and blessed with several pocket-sized harbour beaches, Mosman is one of the most sophisticated sydney shopping and dining neighbourhoods. Designer boutiques, antiques shops and hip cafes line Military Road while Taronga Zoo is nearby, at Bradleys Head.
For nature lovers, Mosman offers spectacular bushwalks such as the Taronga to Balmoral Walk, part of Sydney Harbour National Park. With its winding beachside promenade walk, Balmoral Beach is popular for walking, jogging or admiring ocean views. There's a strip of cafes and restaurants, enclosed harbour baths and wonderful picnic spots that make Balmoral a popular spot for families and locals.
