Located just near the Tuckey Track just off Melbourne Road in Sorrento. A great place for a quick stop on your walk through the Tuckey Track and to have a swim down at Diamond Bay.

This was originally a storage cabinet that I bought from an antique store a while ago and I was trying to work out what I could use it for and then I found out about this library and thought I’d do my own.

So with the help from my parents, we painted it black to match our house and then added two wooden posts which we painted black as well.

It’s in a great place as it’s walking distance from Diamond Bay and the walking track of Tuckey Track on the other side of Melbourne Road. So there’s foot traffic for both destinations including the suburb of Sorrento which is a high tourist spot during the summer months so we get lots of people walking up and down the footpath to and from Sorrento.

It’s been in place since the 1st of December 2019 just in time for the summer tourist season and there’s plenty of space for small and large books on the shelf below.

So come on by and swap a book and take a book of your choice on your walk to either Tuckey Track, Diamond Bay and the shops are Sorrento. We are next to Diamond Bay Road heading up the hill and it’s on the driveway.
