Taking the family to Sydney for a week then to Cairns for a week in December. As I am planning this trip, I hope you mates can give me some advise on some spots.

The family in tow, so I need to ensure they are happy on the beach (no stingers or crocs) while I feed my addition.

In return for some advice, here is an image from Hood River where the swell was, as usual, high rolling.
