Walk to Newport Beach from a Warm Studio
Newport Beach on Sydney's Northern Beaches is fast becoming an exclusive holiday destination for Australian and International holiday-makers alike. Not only is it famous for its many popular surfing breaks including Newport Peak and reef, it is also ideal for swimming, being patrolled by lifeguards over the summer months from October through to April. The iconic Newport Hotel is a short 10 minute walk from the home and other quality eateries are even closer, located in Newport Village. The Village also offers a wide variety of shopping from large supermarkets to boutique stores. Palm Beach, or Summer Bay as it's known on "Home and Away", is 15 minutes further north by car. If night life or a faster pace is more your style then Manly is less than half an hour by car, travelling South. From here the Manly ferry can take you across Sydney Harbour to the CBD for a day of sightseeing. The beach is less than 5 minutes down one end of the road and should you chose to explore the other end of the road, you'll find the historic Bungan Castle, built in 1919. Majestically perched on the headland overlooking Bungan Beach, every stone of this castle was brought over by its German owner and it is now heritage listed. A magical summer awaits at Myola Beach Studio, we look forward to welcoming you. Guests will have private access to the studio on level ground, friendly for disabled or the elderly. Owners are onsite in the main residence if needed. The apartment is steps away from the shores of Newport Beach and a short drive from Bungan Beach. It’s positioned in what’s known as the Golden Triangle, where one can find an array of shopping and dining options.

All about Avalon Beach
Avalon Beach is an inviting seaside town on the Barrenjoey Peninsula, less than an hour north of Sydney. In a cove where the cliffs relent, the town’s eponymous beach serves as a gathering place and popular surf spot. Adjacent to Des Creagh Reserve, a community garden, and a golf course, the beach also features a grassy park with benches and picnic areas, plus a public swimming pool that juts out along the rocky shore.
A handful of charming cafes, bistros, and shops cluster around the intersection of Old Barrenjoey Road and Avalon Parade in the town centre, and parks and nature reserves like Angophora Reserve, Palmgrove Park, and Stapleton Reserve offer sanctuaries of natural beauty between the windy suburban streets. On the scenic western shoreline of town, sailboats and pleasure craft speckle the bay and, and a walking path connects Bangalley Park and Careel Headland Reserve offering lookout points with picturesque views from the coastal cliffs.
What are the top things to do in Avalon Beach?
Bangalley Head Walk
Marvel at stunning ocean views from the coastal cliffs of Bangalley Head as you hike through one of the largest bushland reserves along the Pittwater coastline. Trailheads in Bangalley Park to the south and off Whale Beach Road to the north allow entry to a central loop that brings visitors through distinctive habitats home to native bird species like the spotted pardalote and peregrine falcon, as well as the ring-tail possum. Be warned, the trail is somewhat rugged and takes about an hour to complete.
Avalon Beach
Catch some rays on the sandy shores of Avalon Beach and enjoy the picturesque views of the surrounding rocky cliffs. Whether you’re looking to go surfing, swimming, or have a picnic in the adjoining park, this beach has it all. Avalon Rock Pool, a public swimming facility at the south end of the beach, is another noteworthy feature with its concrete foundation built into the rocks along the shore. The area around the pool includes a small skateboarding park and a playground.
Paradise Beach
Head over to the Pittwater side of town to Paradise Beach and take a swim in the calm waters of this charming cove. The beach has an enclosed swimming area, as well as a small wharf to walk out on. Nearby there’s a hub that rents paddle boards and kayaks.
