SMITHS CREEK

Beautiful, quiet deep gorge a gentle 90min cruise from Church Point. Extremely protected from most winds. Public moorings in each of its 3 bays

COTTAGE POINT INN

Boaties and Sydneysiders in the know have enjoyed the Inn’s transformation from a pleasant bistro into an assured and respected fine dining restaurant that matches its stunning riverside, national park setting. Once a well kept secret The Cottage Point Inn is now widely recognised as one of Sydney’s finest dining destination restaurants.

THE QUAYS MARINA

The Quays Marine Centre is situated on the southern end of Pittwater, just across from Scotland Island. The Quays is a private marina catering for all things boating.
