Why it's worth checking out
Obelisk Beach sits on Sydney Harbour in the Mosman area of Sydney's Lower North Shore. With 171 reviews behind its 4.4 rating, it's a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a secluded, natural harbour beach — a lovely, tucked-away stretch of sand on Sydney Harbour reached by a bush track, a genuine favourite for a quieter swim, a paddle or simply soaking up the harbour scenery away from the crowds. It's a lovely, largely unspoilt spot.
Harbour beaches have changing conditions, tides and limited facilities, and access can involve a walk, so check current details and any advisories before you go. Bring sun protection, water and your swimmers, and take care in and around the water.
