Wobby Waters is located in the peaceful, boat-access-only community of Little Wobby, on the Hawkesbury River. We’re just:
  • 45 minutes from Sydney via the M1
  • 30 minutes from the Central Coast
  • 5 minutes by water taxi or private boat from Brooklyn Marina or Parsley Bay
If you’re arriving by train, take the Central Coast & Newcastle Line to Hawkesbury River Station (Brooklyn). It’s about a 1-hour trip from Central Station. From there, it’s a short stroll to the wharf, where you can catch a ferry (running approximately every hour) or a pre-booked water taxi directly to Little Wobby. We’ll send detailed travel directions and water taxi contact numbers prior to your stay

Ferry & Water Taxi Access

As Little Wobby is water access only, all guests arrive by boat or ferry.

The Brooklyn Ferry runs several times a day between Brooklyn, Dangar Island, and Little Wobby.
Alternatively, book a private water taxi from Brooklyn
Marina or Parsley Bay Boat Ramp for direct transfers, a scenic 5-minute ride to your doorstep.

Your arrival at Wobby Waters begins the moment you step onto the water, so sit back, relax, and enjoy the view.
