We love Bonfire bread. This bakery sells the best sourdough loaves; do yourself a favour and try the olive loaf but my husband can’t walk by without grabbing a carrot muffin!

I do love a little celebratory luncheon at Dunes; put your best dress on and celebrate in the inside outside setting!
However, if your after something a little more casual, there is also Dunes cafe, next door! I love their egg and bacon roll and coffee after a walk along Palmy.

Catch the boat from the Palm beach jetty, it’s a fun 30 minute boat ride that takes you to beautiful Patongia. A great place to have a swim, fish n chips or sit down at the Boat House restaurant- drinks and deliciousness.
