SYDNEY LA PEROUSE & CONGWONG BEACH
SYDNEY – LA PEROUSE & CONGWONG BEACH
On a hot summery day, we went to Congwong beach at La Perouse. What a gorgeous day it turned out to be, plenty of strong wind, (you can hear it in the video) and gorgeous crystal clear warm water. Congwong is a very small family beach, beloved by many and its perfect for snorkeling and swimming because the swells are gentle. I hope you enjoy this video, if you have any questions or observations please include them in the comments section below.

Till next time, be happy and keep smiling like you own the world!
A little about La Perouse:-
La Perouse is a suburb in south-eastern Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. The suburb of La Perouse is located about 14 kilometres southeast of the Sydney central business district, in the City of Randwick.
The La Perouse peninsula is the northern headland of Botany Bay. It is notable for its old military outpost at Bare Island and the Kamay Botany Bay National Park. Congwong Bay Beach, Little Congwong Beach, and the beach at Frenchmans Bay provide protected swimming areas in Botany Bay. La Perouse is one of few Sydney suburbs with a French name, others being Sans Souci, Engadine and Vaucluse. Kurnell is located opposite, on the southern headland of Botany Bay.
La Perouse was named after the French navigator Jean-François de Galaup, comte de Lapérouse (1741–88), who landed on the northern shore of Botany Bay west of Bare Island on 26 January 1788. Captain Arthur Phillip and the first fleet of convicts had arrived in Botany Bay a few days earlier. Louis XVI of France had commissioned Lapérouse to explore the Pacific.[3] In April 1770 James Cook's expedition had sailed onto the east coast of Australia whilst exploring the south Pacific searching for Terra Australis or ‘Land of the South’. Upon King Louis XVI's orders, Lapérouse departed Brest, France, in command of the Astrolabe and Boussole on 1 August 1785 on a scientific voyage of the Pacific inspired by the voyages of Cook. La Perouse in Sydney's south is named after the leader of this French expedition.
The first building in the area was the octagonal stone tower constructed in 1820-22 as accommodation for a small guard of soldiers stationed there to prevent smuggling, and the tower still stands today.[20] By 1885, an Aboriginal reserve had been established in the suburb and a number of missions were operated in the area. The original church was dismantled and moved to the corner of Elaroo and Adina Avenues, where it still stands.
A kiosk was built in 1896 to cater for tourists who came to see the attractions, including snake-handling shows.[21] During the Great Depression, from the late 1920s, many severely affected low-income families took up residence here in settlements beside the Aboriginal reserve.
The small island just inside the heads was described by Captain James Cook as ‘a small bare island’. Bare Island was fortified in 1885, according to a design by colonial architect, James Barnet (1827–1904), and fitted with heavy guns. In 1912 Bare Island became a retirement home for war veterans, which continued to operate until 1963 when it was handed over to the New South Wales Parks and Wildlife Service for use as a museum and tourist attraction.[22]
Apart from the fortification on Bare Island two other fortifications are located within La Perouse, one of them, Fort Banks is located on Cape Banks. This facility was part of the Eastern Command Fixed Defences unit, it was designed and positioned in a way that would allow it to protect the approaches to Botany Bay in the event of a sea born attack during the World War II period. Henry Head Battery, constructed 1892 - 1895, operated until 1910, when the fort became obsolete. The battery along with two gun-emplacements and observation posts was recommissioned for use during the second World War.[23]
Heritage listings[edit]
La Perouse has a number of heritage-listed sites, including:
• Bare Island Fort[24]
• 46 Adina Avenue: La Perouse Mission Church[25]
• 1-39 Bunnerong Road: Chinese Market Gardens (La Perouse)[26]

FILIPINOS VISIT THE BREATHTAKING LA PEROUSE BEACH,NEW SOUTH WALES,SYDNEY &FIRST TIME EATING BAHN MI!
Hello Everyone. Hi KaTalkies.
First time going to Sydney, Australia to meet Irene, May and the rest of the Baay Family. We left early from Brisbane at 6:55am and arrived in Sydney in an hour. We were very excited to see the postcard perfect photos of the world renowned Opera House and of course, some tourist spots in Sydney. First stop, we went to one of the best Pork Rolls in town, then to La Perouse Beach where we spent some great, awesome time taking pictures , enjoying the view and where we also have eaten the Banh Mi (Pork Roll) bread with pork rolls in it. It was filling and healthy.
We met a new friend dog, Chester, and had a magnificent moment seeing a Sea Gull gliding over my head. It was amazing!
After this, we headed to Baay’s Home.
IT IS GREAT TO BE IN SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA.

Unknown Beaches in Sydney
When people move to Australia, the most visited places are the beaches. However, as a beach lover, I prefer virgin beaches where are no bars, cafes or loud music. I consider that going to the beach means reconnection with nature and this is impossible in a crowded and conventional place. Today I am going to reveal some unpopular beaches which can serve as your relaxing oasis after a tiring day in the office. And no, I will not talk about Bondi or Coogee which are the most touristy beaches in Sydney, but the emphasis will be on Congwong and Little Congwong Beaches, which both belong to La Perouse area. Little Bay Beach is situated in the Little Bay, a very quiet and pleasant neighborhood and this beach will offer you clear blue waters and a rocky landscape. If you are not that conventional, Little Conwong Beach might be the best fit for you because this one is a nudist beach. In conclusion, if you search for me in Sydney, expect to meet me on one of these beaches.

Cand oamenii se muta in Australia, cele mai vizitate locuri sunt plajele. In orice caz, in calitate de mare iubitoare a plajelor, le prefer pe cele mai retrase, cu cat mai putine baruri, cafenele sau alte lucruri care ma distrag de la relaxare. Personal, sunt de parere ca mersul la plaja ar trebui sa presupuna reconectarea cu natura si mai putin consumerismul. Astazi o sa va arat cateva dintre plajele despre care nu vorbeste nimeni si sunt adesea ignorate. Si nu, nu o sa vorbesc despre Bondi sau Coogee, ci despre Conwong si Little Congwong Beach care fac parte din zona La Perouse. Little Bay Beach este situata in Little Bay, un cartier foarte placut si linistit. Aceasta plaja va va oferi un peisaj minunat (stancos) si apa cristalina. Daca nu sunteti atat de conventionali, cred ca Little Congwong Beach vi s-ar potrivi de minune, deoarece aici puteti face plaja nud. In concluzie, daca sunteti in Sydney, nu ma cautati in Bondi sau Coogee Beach pentru ca ma veti gasi unde nu va asteptati.
