Absolutely fantastic... Simply fantastic. For everyone who is in Sydney and still hesitating... Do it and spend a few wonderful hours at Obelisk Beach... It's worth it.

A very picturesque and hidden clothing optional / nude beach. A good place to try naked scuba! Note that it's not particularly deep, no more than 3 to 4m depth on the north (left hand) side. Make sure you go at high tide, and when the water is clear!

The small beach at the nudist camp. A paradise for nudists.
