Attunga Reserve - Bilgola Beach (NSW)

Swapnil Gupta Free parking is available on the opposite side of the beach on the street next to Woolworth metro after 12.30pm on weekends

J Fong The lighthouse is located at the top of a hill. To get there, it is a walk from the car park through a beach before the start of the ascend via a grade 2 or 3 route. The water views along the way with beautiful greens in the background is truly a nice start to the hike. There are no restrictions to heading up and down from the lighthouse but it is still worth considering the path you may find easier. For me, grade 2 option was my choice up and down as it was easier although there are multiple slopes with quite a gradient. It was not difficult to catch a breath partway if the climb is a bit much or if you are not used to it. There is sufficient walking space too for people to overtake or to walk in the opposite direction. Saw folks of all ages - young and old in both directions. Some key tips: - The trees and plants provide a good shade cover when walking up and down regardless of the option grade 2 or 3 track. - During whale migration season, the top is a good viewing spot and there are clear indications of which side of the top you could see it - There are unisex toilet facilities near the lighthouse at the top. They were clean and well maintained when i visited. - There are tours at selected times to the lighthouse. - Good footwear and light clothing is important when hiking up to the lighthouse even when it is sunny and not a hot day. It is a beautiful spot to enjoy the afternoon. I spent bout 2 hours there and enjoyed savouring the views and fresh air. Loved too the variety of birds from kookaburras to lorikeets + many others. Also, a lot of natural sandstone that adds on to the natural beauty of sand, water and the bush. A place worth visiting if you havent been before.

Deepti Kaamineni What’s not to love about this stunning place. Beach, views, gorgeous place.

Sarah Casaneanu My husband and I got married here in 2001. It was 42°. We had a gazebo and our clever guests brought their umbrellas and used them as parasols. I will always remember it fondly.

Andrej Todorov Nice short walk, some steps to hill. lol, but not hard.

Peter Kirkland This is a great little beach that is well-thought-out with barbecue facilities, shade, toilets, and a lovely sandy shore . Its an ideal afternoon swimming spot and watch the sunset. Rex and I had a great time.

Sachith Weligepola A lovely walk around the Narrabeen Lagoon. So much to see and somewhere during this loop track, you come across shops. And hey I saw a full rainbow for the first time in the walks I do!

Petrus Kwan Beautiful place!

Michael Bugelli delivers stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. The lookout is easy to reach and gives you a full sweep of ocean and bush. We spotted eagles soaring overhead, an unexpected highlight in an already beautiful spot.

Oliver The North Bigola Lookout is a small lookout but the view is amazing up there and it is very relaxing. There is also a small car park where probably it can fit around 5 -6 cars, people can also park on the side of the streets if the car park is full. Worth checking it out if you are around the Avalon Beach.
