Long Reef

Long Reef is a prominent headland on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, known for its rugged coastline, expansive rock platforms and classic ocean views. The reef and headland stretch provides a scenic contrast to the long sandy beaches nearby, and the area is rich in geological interest with sedimentary rock formations visible along the shore.

Long Reef Beach and its surrounding rock shelves are popular with walkers, surfers, and photographers alike. At low tide the extensive reef platform is exposed, revealing fascinating rock pools and marine life. The reef is also part of the Long Reef Aquatic Reserve, designated to protect the unique coastal ecosystems and aquatic plants and animals that thrive here.

Activities around Long Reef include fishing, snorkeling, and exploring the rocky shorelines, while the nearby golf course and headland paths offer great spots for a scenic stroll or sunset view. The combination of coastal dynamics, marine biodiversity, and scenic outlooks make Long Reef a standout destination on the Northern Beaches.
