Lavender Bay Wharf

Lavender Bay Wharf is located just on Middle Harbour, west of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and boasts one of the best ground-level views of the iconic landmark and Luna Park just below it. If Lavender Bay Wharf happens to be the easiest pick up and drop off point for you and your group when you book your Ucruise Sydney boat hire, our team can give you all the support you'll need to make it happen. This wharf's central location and the ample Lavender Bay mean that there should be no problem with a pick up and drop off from here with most vessels. However, the wharf itself is fairly small, so some larger boats may not be able to dock here.

Choosing Lavender Bay Wharf for Your Cruise Pick Up

Lavender Bay Wharf is probably one of the go-to wharfs for small and mi-sized parties mainly located in North Sydney and the northern suburbs. An accessible, central location and plenty of local amenities have made the wharf a popular one for our catamaran cruises. That said, when you're booking your boat hire through Ucruise Sydney, give our staff all the information regarding your party size and locations, and we can advise you on whether there might be a better option. Finally, it should be noted that although there's plenty of parkland nearby, the wharf lacks a covered waiting area, so for people who'd prefer to be out of the sun or who want to await pick up in a comfy waiting room, one of Sydney's public wharfs such as the North Sydney Wharf might be a better choice.

Getting to Lavender Bay Wharf

Lavender Bay is smack bang in the centre of Sydney Harbour, so there's no surprise that it's pretty easy to get to. Most of Sydney's main highways link up nicely to the Harbour Bridge, and the Pacific Highway runs right past Lavender Bay as well. If you are coming by car, however, be aware that most guaranteed parking is about a 15 minute walk away in central North Sydney, so bear that in mind when you're calculating how much food and drink to bring along. Public transport is an option, with the North Sydney Station just a few minutes' walk from the wharf. Although there aren't any public ferry services available, you can grab a water taxi or transfer from elsewhere in the Harbour, and this will likely be the fastest and most comfortable option for many Sydneysiders.

Local amenities

With the centre of North Sydney just a stone's throw away, Lavender Bay wharf has plenty of amenities available. From coffee shops to restaurants and bars, North Sydney has lots of great meeting points where you and your group can while away the time before pick up. You will also be able to grab most last-minute items here as well, such as ice and sunblock. Lavender Bay Wharf is also very close to Wendy Whitely's Secret Garden, which is a lovely spot to meet in.
