Aerial view over Pittwater and the Northern Beaches

Local Area

Pittwater, and everything around it

Forty-five minutes from the CBD, and a world away from it.

Barrenjoey headland and Palm Beach from the air

Palm Beach & Barrenjoey

Twenty minutes from Church Point: the ocean beach, the walk up to Barrenjoey lighthouse, and the best view in Sydney at the top.

Yachts racing on Pittwater at golden hour

Sailing on Pittwater

One of the great sheltered sailing waters in the country. Twilight races on Wednesdays, and something worth watching from the deck most afternoons.

Bushland headland rising out of the Pittwater waterway

Ku-ring-gai Chase

National park on the far shore — sandstone, Aboriginal engravings, bush walks that end at empty beaches you can only reach by boat.

Wide calm water of Pittwater with a lone yacht

Church Point & Avalon

The general store and pub at Church Point for oysters and a beer as the ferry comes in; Avalon and Newport a short drive on for cafés, bakeries and provisions.

“Sydney's best kept secret… only 45 minutes from the CBD.”
