BROKEN BAY & PITTWATER DESTINATION

Explore Pittwater, Broken Bay & Hawkesbury River

Though most people in the world know about the beautiful Sydney Harbour with its iconic landmarks and waterways made famous by the Sydney to Hobart starts, many people have never heard of Broken Bay & Pittwater located just north in Sydney’s northern perimeter.

Significantly larger than Sydney Harbour, Broken Bay incorporates Pittwater, the Hawkesbury River and Brisbane waters and is surrounded by the Ku-ring-gai National Park.

There are incredible destinations and anchorages with plenty of dedicated swing moorings, such as the serene Basin with it’s wallaby kangaroos and swimming lagoon nestled inside Coaster Retreat. Or Refuge Bay and America Bay with beautiful waterfalls and watering holes that you can hike to and swim from. Finally, why not explore restaurants, cafes and pubs from Cottage Point to Patonga, a quick dinghy ride in.

Explore these areas on a 5 night bareboat or skippered charter aboard charter boats that range from our new Seawind 1160, Seawind 1260’s or the Aquila 44 power catamaran.
