What a lovely spot on the Northern Beaches. If you love the trifecta of playground, beach and cafe, bookmark this spot. Apex Park Playground is just across the road from the beach and surf club, and a lovely cafe called The Bronze Kiosk. The only drawback of this playground is that it isn’t fully fenced. […]

It’s one of the things most often remarked on when people read Sydney For Under Fives. Here’s […]
