  • "THe Sun-Herald, March 2007 "pleasure to be stranded by the sea' The Bundeena Beachshack is so close to the water that you feel as if you are a crusty old sea captain piloting a boat across Port Hacking...At night, the sound of the waves lulls you to sleep. If you love the sand between your toes, this is certainly the place for you..""
