Hermit Beach

📖 About Hermit Beach

Hermit Beach is a secluded 40-metre-wide sandy cove in Sydney Harbour National Park, nestled in Hermit Bay just north of Hermit Point in Vaucluse. Accessible only via the Hermitage Foreshore walking track — part of the iconic Bondi to Manly coastal walk — it rewards those who seek it out with pristine harbour water and bush-framed seclusion. The beach is unpatrolled and best enjoyed by walkers, snorkellers, and those looking to escape the city crowds.
