Sea Cliff Bridge

A suspended bridge curving along the sea cliffs on the Grand Pacific Drive, the classic photo stop on a day trip along Sydney's southern coast.

Sea Cliff Bridge lies about 60 km south of Sydney, between Clifton and Coalcliff, and is a signature stretch of the Grand Pacific Drive. Built in 2005 to bypass the old coast road, which was at risk from falling rocks, the bridge is 665 metres long, with its curved deck hanging over the sea beyond the cliffs. A footpath runs along the bridge. Park in the car parks at either end and walk onto it for photos. At the northern end, the Bald Hill lookout overlooks the coastline and is a launch site for hang-gliders. Entry is free, but stopping on the bridge is prohibited. It is often combined with Royal National Park, Nan Tien Temple and the Kiama Blowhole in a one-day southern coast tour. Those without a car can join a day tour from Sydney.
