This is a replacement of the previous boardwalk, but has been built a little further out into the water.
There is step-free access from the end of Cresta Ave all the way to the end of the walkway, however there are then steps down to the beach or back up to the park. However you can retrace your steps and take a different step-free route to the lookout.

Browns Bay rubbish
Happened to be in Browns Bay yesterday and thought we'd have a stroll south along the rocks. Noticed broken glass on the rocks and then this . . . rubbish bin about 50m away.
Is this a weed?
We are often asked "is this a weed?", so we are planning a weed identification guide for our website. What plant in your garden is giving you trouble? Are you wondering if it is a weed? We would love to see photos of your problem plants.

The best definition of a weed is that it is a plant in the wrong place. Any plant may be desired and manageable in one situation, (perhaps on the other side of the world:) and a problem in another situation.
Nevertheless, it is sometimes useful to know that a plant is known to be a problem elsewhere. If it is giving you unwanted work, you may not be the only one reconsidering its place in your garden.
In addition to the better-known weeds such as wild ginger, Tradescantia, pink jasmine, Japanese honeysuckle, privets and many others, recently in our clients' gardens we have learned of a few more plant species causing significant loss of space and damage to wanted plants in some local gardens.
One was Tecomaria capensis/Tecoma (aka Cape Honeysuckle, a common hedge plant with hidden runners, which if uncontrolled spreads new plants and also grows as a vine).
Another was Thunbergia vine. One of many different plant species around the world known as Black-eyed Susan, this one is a rampaging vine.
Below: Photos of a Tecomaria hedge on a street berm, where it is controlled by pruning. Any new plants shooting up in the grass would be mown down.

In the hustle and bustle of life, we often forget to take a moment for ourselves, to simply rest and recharge. So, let this day be a gentle reminder to slow down and prioritize your own peace of mind.
So, whether you choose to bask in the sun's warm embrace, listen to the soothing sounds of nature, or simply relish the beauty of a moment suspended in time, remember that relaxation is a gift you deserve to give yourself.
Wishing you a day filled with serenity, calmness, and a profound sense of wellbeing. Happy Relaxation Day! ???
