Shelly Beach Sunrise Cronulla

Since daylight savings was reverted a week or so ago here in Australia, catching the sunrise requires me to wake up at about 5:00am in the morning so I can drive to shelly beach in time to catch it and do my usual morning swim. This post is dedicated to just that, watching the big ball of hydrogen atoms going through nuclear fusion, creating helium to produce the live giving warmth and light we call the sun come over the horizon. Its also a great time to say hi to the older, friendly folk swimming at shelly beach every morning 🙂

Steps down to the shelly beach rock pools for the older crowd to ensure they do not slip. There is also wheel chair access right next to the stairs

Sand on shelly beach where I usually put my gear before the swim when its not raining. Sometimes going for a dive along the side of the pool outside the barriers is fun to do in calmer waters

Walking down the shelly beach walk way towards the pools.

In the image below, on the right hand side of the walk way there used to be a really old block of apartments which are currently being fixed up with a new coat of paint. They also seem to be replacing the old rusting metal balconies with more modern glass and stainless steel models barriers to suite the rest of the newer apartments in the area.

It is certainly going to look good after its done ! Hmmm makes me think … wonder how much rent will be there once its completed 😛

It was a nice morning, got through my laps, sat on the beach and took in the fresh air for about 30 mins and now back home working on the final parts of the Android App soon to be released.

Enjoy the picture post !
