Make IT your year

Keep the river clean

Any waste will destroy the habitat of a lot of our river species.

If you see rubbish floating in the water, please scoop it out.

The River Gods will reward your fishing, if you do your bit.

Overnight, weekend and week stays

You will find a vast range of accommodation along Berowra Creek, extending from Silverwater Reach to Coba Point.

Whether you’re traveling with family, friends or going it alone, you’re sure to find a place to relax.

Obey the water rules

When you leave the marina, you must travel at no more than 4 knots until you see the yellow fluro sign on the right hand side as you go past Calabash Bay.

After that, it is a No Wash Zone for some distance. Wash will cause damage to the foreshore, pontoons, small boats, and can cause injury and annoyance to everyone.

Most importantly, the wash from boats can destabilise the river bank and cause algal blooms.

History

The Berowra Waters area was originally inhabited by the Darug and Guringai Aboriginal peoples. The name Berowra is said to be an Aboriginal word meaning place of many winds. During the 1800s, Berowra Creek was used intermittently by loggers and fishermen who camped along its banks.
