We visited this little gem multiple times. It's home to 5 well spaced public moorings with room for anchoring between. A little wrap-around cove and only open from the west, it's a great place to shelter from stronger winds from most prevailing directions. As a bonus, no swell can creep in and there is no annoyance from passing boats, water skiers or jet skis. Oh happy day!
Very reminiscent of a the bays around Pittwater and the Hawksbury River.
The Bloke ensured that our visits here would not be too lonely or isolated by at various times, inviting all the other boats to 5ers on board Zofia.
Visitor alert!
Xamala, a lovely aluminium yacht from Brisbane
In the calmer conditions it was possible to try some water sports
On one occasion, former marina neighbours from our Soldiers Point Marina
visit came to find us, bringing with them a bucket of prawns for a
shared lunch! It's only a nautical mile away.

One of the drawbacks to this little piece of paradise is too little breeze. This is good in a storm but not so on hot days. We were sternly informed, multiple times, that this is a breeding place for bull sharks, so a cooling dip suddenly fell off our radar. Flies were not a problem during our first couple of visits but March Flies and then Sand Flies became a torment by the end of February. I needed to escape to overcome sever allergic reactions with some bites swelling to the size of a biscuit. A pity, but proof that you can have too much of a good thing!
