Things to do at Milsons Passage
Most of what there is to do here starts at the end of the jetty. Opening hours and prices for places nearby change, so check them directly before you go.
Kayaking and paddleboarding from the jetty
Kayaks and paddleboards are kept at the private jetty. Early mornings are usually the calmest time on the water. Stay aware of boat traffic and tides, and wear a lifejacket. [CONFIRM: lifejackets provided]
Brooklyn oysters and eateries
Brooklyn is known for Hawkesbury River oysters, and the waterfront has cafés and casual places to eat. Combine a meal with your arrival or departure.
National park walks
Ku-ring-gai Chase and Marramarra National Parks line the river with sandstone bushland and walking tracks. Check NSW National Parks for track conditions and closures before setting out.
Fishing
The river is popular for fishing. A NSW recreational fishing licence is generally required — check NSW DPI rules on bag and size limits. [CONFIRM: fishing gear available at the house]
The river itself
Watch the tide and light change from the deck, swim from the jetty in warmer months, or simply sit with a book. For many guests, that is the whole point.
Dangar Island
A short ferry ride from Brooklyn, Dangar Island is small and car-free — good for an easy wander.
