Cronulla Beach - April 2024
Australia

Nestled along the southern coast of Sydney, Cronulla Beach holds a rich history dating back thousands of years, intertwined with the indigenous Dharawal people. The name "Cronulla" is thought to originate from an Aboriginal word meaning "place of pink seashells." In the late 19th century, it began to develop as a seaside resort, attracting holidaymakers drawn to its sandy shores. The opening of the railway line in 1885 facilitated access, spurring growth as a popular retreat. During World War II, Cronulla played a role in Australia's defense, its beaches used for military training. Post-war, it surged in residential development, transforming into a thriving suburb. Today, Cronulla Beach remains cherished for its natural beauty, vibrant atmosphere, and rich history, where locals and visitors alike enjoy carefree days under the azure sky, as we did after a delightful lunch overlooking the sea.

More About Australia

There are no kangaroos in Austria. We're talking about Australia, the world's smallest continent. That being cleared up, let's dive right in! Australia is a sovereign state under the Commonwealth of Nations, which is in turn overseen by Queen Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, Queen of Australia and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth. The continent was first sighted and charted by the Dutch in 1606. Captain James Cook of Britain came along in the next century to claim it for Britain and name it "New South Wales." Shortly thereafter it was declared to be a penal colony full of nothing but criminals and convicts, giving it the crap reputation you may have heard at your last cocktail party. This rumor ignores 40,000 years of pre-European human history, especially the Aboriginal concept of Dreamtime, an interesting explanation of physical and spiritual reality. The two biggest cities in Australia are Sydney and Melbourne. Sydney is more for business, Melbourne for arts. But that's painting in very broad strokes. Take a whirl around the panoramas to see for yourself! Text by Steve Smith.
