The boat ramp at d’Albora Marinas Akuna Bay sits quietly within the lush surrounds of Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park in Terrey Hills, offering a convenient launch point for anyone looking to explore the tranquil waterways of Coal and Candle Creek and the wider Hawkesbury River system.
This dual-lane concrete ramp is well-kept and suited for launching small to mid-sized boats. As with any trip on the water, it's a good idea to check current tidal and weather conditions before heading out.
Being part of the Akuna Bay Marina, the ramp is supported by a range of handy amenities. Boaters and visitors alike can access fuel services, boat maintenance, and several dining options on site.
There's also plenty of trailer parking available, making access straightforward even on busier days.
The marina itself is well-equipped, offering toilets, showers, and a full-service boatyard. Additional features include kayak hire, wet berths, and a hardstand area.
Beyond boating, the setting makes it a great place to relax. Visitors can enjoy a coffee or a meal in the café and restaurant (with a licensed bar) while taking in views of high-end vessels moored at the marina. The surrounding area is wheelchair accessible and connected to walking and cycling trails, making it a peaceful spot to explore even if you’re not heading out on the water.
All in all, Akuna Bay is a well-rounded destination; whether you’re launching your boat, enjoying the bushland, or simply taking in the atmosphere.
