The Sydney Skinny takes place in beautiful Middle Head, Sydney Harbour National Park. It’s a spectacular place and one part of its rich history makes it particularly relevant for us to do so. Just after the British arrived, an accidental meeting of Red Coats and First Australians took place on the sand at Cobblers Beach, or Cubba Cubba as it is also know. After they were done with nervously looking at these strange white and fully clothed beings, the Aboriginal people pushed their spears into the sand in a gesture of welcome and began to dance. Eventually the Red Coats threw off their clothes and joined them in a joyous celebration of friendship.
