Walk: Watsons Bay - The First Eastern Suburb

For all its now upmarket edges, Watsons Bay retains a sense of its past as a small, isolated marine village of pilots, lighthouse keepers and fisherfolk. This is overlayed by an extensive history of soldiers, sailors, scientists, shipwrecks, suicides, submarine attack, coastal artillery, trams and fish and chips - all crammed into the narrow confines of one of Sydney’s most spectacular scenic settings. Join Graham Spindler to wander Watson’s beaches, cliffs, parkland and byways and explore some of the rich legacy of Sydney’s first ‘eastern suburb’.
