Midway Point: Walking Trails, Sailing and Local Experiences

Midway Point combines a scenic walking route with opportunities for exercise, sailing and dining. The Orielton Lagoon Loop runs around Orielton Lagoon and through Sorell and Midway Point. There is also a golf course, recreational sports facilities and seasonal sailing courses.

Around Orielton Lagoon

The Orielton Lagoon Loop is a shared-use path around the lagoon. Its route passes through two towns: Sorell and Midway Point. This makes it a useful point of reference for anyone looking to include a scenic route in their trip, alongside individual recreational activities. The Loop can be considered as a destination in its own right, whether or not your stay focuses on exercise, sailing or other interests.

Passing through Midway Point and Sorell gives the route a cross-town character. When planning your stay, you can first consider whether you want to focus mainly on the scenery along the lagoon or on the other recreational opportunities in Midway Point.

Play, Sports and Golf

A pump track has been completed at Flyway Park. The park also has an existing playground and spacious lawn areas. Together, these make play and open green spaces a distinct part of Midway Point’s recreational scene. For families, the playground is a useful point of reference, while the lawns add to the park’s appeal.

Two multi-purpose sports courts at an outdoor sports facility in Midway Point offer another option for recreational sports. They are used for recreational sports. Golf enthusiasts can find Pittwater Golf Course in the north-eastern part of town, a nine-hole golf course. These facilities offer different ways to enjoy active leisure: multi-purpose sports on the courts and a round of golf on a nine-hole course. You can choose between them according to your interests, without assuming they are part of the same complex.

Sailing Courses and Regatta

Midway Point Yacht Club offers sailing courses for all ages and skill levels from October to April. The season and broad range of participants are useful points of reference when planning your holiday: if you want to learn to sail or include sailing as an activity, you can take these months into account. The courses are not limited to a single age or skill group.

The yacht club’s annual programme also includes the annual Pittwater Regatta. This is a two-day short-course event that attracts participants from across the state. It is therefore distinct from the seasonal courses: the regatta is an annual event, while the courses run from October to April. The yacht club also has a modernised viewing platform.
