Port Hacking Cruising Division Wattamolla (Providential Cove)
Port Hacking Cruising Division Wattamolla (Providential Cove) Approach from the SE heading NW to clear reef #1 and stay to seaward of reef #2. The depth is good off the northern cliffs. Run parallel to the cliffs with reef #2 to seaward and continue to the SW shore where a turn can be made around reef #3 to the anchor area marked in blue. Protection direction The anchorage is protected from most winds less than 20 knots, but not protected from easterlies and vulnerable to SE/E/NE swell. Depth of water Good depth all the way in with sufficient clearance to all reefs and shore lines. The average depth in the anchoring area is 3 metres. Anchoring Best position behind reef #3. If any swell comes through it’s advisable to use a stern anchor to hold the bow to the swell. Description This inlet as well as having great historical interest is in one of the world’s first national parks. It is accessible by road via the Audley weir or by sea. Approaching Wattamolla from the sea on the right day is a privilege that would not be forgotten. After a short run from Port Hacking the inlet materialises via a gap in the high sandstone cliffs. The entrance is guarded by three reefs and beyond is a beautiful white beach whose backdrop in a high waterfall cascading into the lagoon behind the beach. The holding is good into sand; however, care must be taken to choose the right weather conditions. You could imagine yourself to be at an exotic south sea paradise and only one hours sailing from Port Hacking. -

Transport in the Cumberland Community Research Report June 2020
Transport in the Cumberland Community Research Report June 2020 Document Set ID: 8005199 Version: 9, Version Date: 13/08/2020 Report prepared by the Social Research and Planning Team, Community and Place, Cumberland City Council 2020 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY Cumberland City Council acknowledges the Darug Nation and People as the traditional custodians of the land on which the Cumberland Local Government Area is situated and pays respect to Aboriginal Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as the First Peoples of Australia. Cumberland City Council also acknowledges other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples living and working in the Cumberland Local Government Area. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF PARTICIPANTS Cumberland City Council would like to acknowledge and thank everyone who participated in this research. This report would not have been possible without your time and willingness to share your stories and experiences. Document Set ID: 8005199 Version: 9, Version Date: 13/08/2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report presents findings from research into key transport and mobility challenges for the Cumberland community. This research was conducted between August 2019 and April 2020 and is grounded in empirical data sourced from the Australian Bureau of Statistics and Transport for NSW, amongst other sources, and extensive community engagement. Quality transport options are fundamental to accessing many essential services, education, employment and social and recreational activities. Although three train lines run through the Cumberland LGA, in addition to the T80 high frequency bus route, many Cumberland residents still have difficulties getting around. Major barriers raised by the community relate to reliability, frequency and coverage of services. -

Collaborations between these two areas are a recent development, yet a scientific basis for safety information is crucial to better understanding how to avoid and mitigate the hazard presented by rip currents. One such area is the field of swimmer escape strategies. Contemporary safety advice is divided on the relative merits of a ‘Stay Afloat’ versus ‘Swim Parallel’ strategy, yet conceptual understanding of both these strategies is largely based on an idealised model of rip current morphology and flow dynamics where channels are incised in shore-connected bars. -
