Getting to Pearl Beach Waterfall

A walking track starts from the end of Amethyst Avenue in Pearl Beach, which is about 1:20min north of Sydney or half an hour south of Gosford. The walking trail meets the creek just before the Pearl Beach Waterfall, and then continues along the creek (with one short but steep ascent) to the Pearly Ponds swimming hole.
