Bobbin Head

A beautiful, relaxed, and peaceful waterfront spot that’s perfect for families. The area is very well set up with electric BBQs, covered seating, a playground, and plenty to see and explore around the marina and bushland. There’s a nearby coffee shop offering basic, classic café food-nothing fancy, but convenient and just right for a casual outing.

Beautiful area, first time attending this national park, travelled over an hour to get here and will definitely be back! Great for family picnics, playground available grass field to kick a ball and a small beach front opposite the marina. Lots of people with paddle boats, canoes and blow up paddleboards. Great coffee shop, slow service but worth the wait. $12 dollar day rate on parking, meters available or pay via the app. QR codes available around the parking locations. My added photos don't do this place justice. Come see it for yourself!

It was a very soothing experience the sunlight falling on the water reflecting gold with the cold start for the day. It is a very peaceful place with nature playing its own music from the birds and waters ✨. A must visit place with your loved ones.

🌿 A hidden gem just outside the city! 🌿 Bobbin Head in Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park is one of the most peaceful and enriching places we've ever visited as a family. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by lush greenery, calm waters, and the sounds of nature. We did the Mangrove Boardwalk, a short and easy trail that takes you through a serene mangrove forest—perfect for kids! Just a short walk further and you’ll find yourself in a cool, energy-filled rainforest with a truly sacred feel. The air is fresh, the trees are ancient, and you can sense the deep Aboriginal cultural connection to this land. It’s a beautiful way to teach children about Australia's rich First Nations heritage. There’s something for everyone here—kayaking and canoeing on the calm waters, fishing by the shore, or just relaxing with a picnic by the river. The picnic areas are well-maintained, and there are even cafes nearby if you forget to bring snacks. Highly recommended for families, couples, or even a solo walk to reconnect with nature. We left feeling refreshed and grateful for such a magical place so close to Sydney. 💚✨

We love Bobbin Head. It has everything! Beautiful walks, great playground, area for kayaking, fishing and a cafe and loos. It’s stunning! Fab spot for locals and visitors. Plenty of seating and bbq areas too.
