Hawkesbury River Boat Day

Hawkesbury River Boat Day

Explore the beautiful waters of the Hawkesbury and Berowra - Cruise in comfort at the bow of the boat, and take in the views of the towering cliffs and unspoilt bush. Push up into the prehistoric wilderness of the Valley. Feel free to drop in a tube or a wakeboard, or bring a fishing rod for extra fun!

Pull in at a number of deserted beaches, have a swim, wander into the surrounding bush, or just relax in the boat. With so much to discover, our speedboat is the best way to get around.

Enjoy lunch at a waterfront restaurant, or we can provide wraps for a picnic on the go

The tour starts at a beautiful deep water front timber home at Milsons Passage, where we settle in to the river with coffee and snacks. Take a short hike up to the cliffs behind for breathtaking views of the river. Then jump in the boat and start exploring! Past waterside communities, historic islands, even a shipwreck. Keep your eyes peeled for eagles and other wildlife. One of the best days you can have in Sydney.

Sitting right in the middle of the meeting of the three great waterways: Marramarra, Berowra, and Hawkesbury, Bar Island has always been a special place for the inhabitants of the river. A meeting place for the indigenous nations has left a substantial midden, and the European settlers have left the ruins of an old church and a cemetery.

Stop At: Popran National Park, Ironbark Road, Mangrove Mountain, New South Wales 2250 Australia
