We’ve put together a list of spectacular spots to say ‘I do’ on the Northern Beaches.


Bible Garden, Palm Beach

The picturesque Bible Garden is a beautiful garden perched high above the southern end of Palm Beach. You can expect panoramic views of the full crescent of Palm Beach, Barrenjoey Headland, Pittwater Estuary, Broken Bay, and on a clear day you can even see the Central Coast.


Clareville Beach, Clareville

Clareville Beach is a small harbour beach reserve located on the Pittwater side of Avalon. The beach is popular with families and busy in school holidays. We recommend you book the southern end which is away from the hustle and bustle, but still offers picturesque views.
