All about Mosman

North of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Mosman is one of Sydney’s most delightful waterside suburbs, with its lush greenery, sloping hills, and mix of waterfront properties. With a picture-perfect location right on Sydney Harbour, it is a great spot to discover the many scenic harbour walks, including the popular Manly to Spit Bridge path. Mosman also has a charming, old-fashioned high street with designer boutiques housed in heritage listed buildings, independent specialty stores, and a handful of lively cafes.

There are several harbourside beaches nearby, such as Balmoral Beach. More calm waters than big waves, it makes a chilled-out alternative to some of the more famous beaches. There are also enclosed harbour baths and shady spots to enjoy a picnic. Nearby in Middle Head, you will come across a fort built in 1801, along with other historic defensive structures. From the fort, you can enjoy stunning views of Sydney Harbour’s entrance, known as the Heads — where the harbour meets the mighty Pacific Ocean. South of Middle Head is Chowder Bay, a popular spot for snorkelling and diving.

What are the top things to do in Mosman?

Manly to Spit Bridge Walk

Start the 10-kilometre walk from Spit Bridge, which will take you around three and a half hours one way to Manly. The views of the Harbour are stunning, and along the way you will pass many points of interest — including the tidal pool in Fairlight, the lovely Clontarf Beach, Reef Beach and Crater Cove, as well as the Grotto Point Lighthouse.

Balmoral Beach

Balmoral Beach is as big as any of Sydney’s Ocean beaches, but its harbourside position means it's shielded from winds and big waves, so the calm waters provide a sheltered swimming enclosure. There are lovely spots to enjoy a picnic as well as many water activities to try here. You can learn to sail at the sailing school or take a spin in the kayaks and stand-up paddleboards available for hire.

Middle Head

One of the area’s best look-out points, it offers sensational views of the Pacific Ocean. You can also find out about Middle Head’s military significance by walking the Don Goodsir track to the 19th-century fort, built in response to a feared French invasion. There are also tunnels and sandstone gun pits to explore.
