On the western side of Bradleys Head is the open, southwest-facing Athol Bay, which has two small beaches located on its western, south-facing shore. The first is a 100 m long moderately steep beach (SH 28) backed by a low 5 m wide grassy berm, then steep rocky slopes, with a rock and timber jetty at the eastern end and the access road to Taronga Wharf above the western end. The second is Whiting Beach (SH 29), a 90 m long south-facing beach, backed by densely vegetated slopes, with a small creek pooling behind the centre of the beach and vegetated slopes rising behind to Taronga Zoo. Little Sirius Point borders the western end.
