One of my favorite places I've ever been
EDIT: Found a crappy small pic that doesn't do it justice. Haha, it's also funny what being a kid does to bridges like that. I jumped off it once and I felt like I was 80 feet in the air, and I always thought it was a monstrous bridge when we'd arrive. Now it looks like nothing, lol.
EDIT: Although, that pic did remind me of how scary that current is, where the river is pushing into the ocean as the strong ocean current pushes back. You can't tell too well from that pic, but it's basically right where you see the "ripples" just past the bridge, but they ain't no ripples when you get out there.

Just stop! your bringing tears to my eyes from memory overload, I hung out there as a teenager and did that jump a hundred times, did the Georges River death jump as well many times, I lost my "cherry" at the Myra Gut when I was 14
