Seven walkers enjoyed this scenic coastal walk, which follows the cliff top throughout the eight kilometres.

Climbing from Malua Bay Beach, we passed through lovely Garden Bay, before a morning tea stop at Mosquito Bay. This is where the mostly residential section of the walk was left behind as we entered the State Forest and the scattered houses around Lilli Pilli, Circuit Beach and Grandfather’s Gully.

Magnificent views across the bay were a constant companion and with a light breeze and a calm sea, there was a tranquil sense to our sauntering.

Of particular interest was the continuing track work in many places along the route. This included bridges across gullies, stairs, including a very steep stairway at Mosquito Bay and the broad stairway up Grandfather’s Gully.

The walk was completed with the descent to Wimbie Beach, then on to Surf Beach and our destination at Denhams Beach.
