views from here are downright delicious (especially when the New Year's Eve fireworks
are erupting).

Spanish Mission-style Nutcote (1925) is the former home of much-loved
Australian children's author May Gibbs, who wrote
Snugglepot & Cuddlepie
. It's now re-
stored to its 1930s glory and houses a museum devoted to her life and work. Cheery vo-
lunteer guides will show you around, and there are beautiful gardens, a tearoom and a gift
shop. It's a five-minute walk from the wharf.
