Timeline

  1. 08:00

    The North Spoon

    Pick up a coffee and a pastry at The North Spoon. It opens at 08:00 on weekends, making it the perfect first stop to fuel up before the walk.

  2. 08:10

    Sawmillers Reserve

    Walk to Sawmillers Reserve. It is located at the bottom of French Street. This quiet harbour spot is ideal for a picnic on the grass, offering views without the bustle of the main reserves.

  3. 08:50

    Blues Point Gourmet Pizzas

    End your morning with a slice of gourmet pizza at Blues Point Gourmet Pizzas. It is just a short walk away and open from 16:30, but for a daytime plan, check if they have earlier options or save this for a late afternoon return. Alternatively, enjoy the quiet of the reserve for the rest of the morning.

Local tip

Sawmillers Reserve is completely hidden from the main road. Look for the bottom of French Street off Blues Point Road in McMahons Point.

Check before you go

  • The North Spoon opens at 08:00 on weekends (Sa-Su).
  • Blues Point Gourmet Pizzas opens at 16:30, so this step is only valid if you return later or adjust the plan to skip it during the morning window.
