Unwind by the Water at Hardys Bay

Hardys Bay is a peaceful village on the Bouddi Peninsula, loved for its quiet waterside setting and relaxed atmosphere. Nestled between the calm waters of Brisbane Water and the bushland of Bouddi National Park, it offers the best of both worlds—seaside tranquillity with adventure at your doorstep.

The bay itself is dotted with moored yachts, fishing boats and a welcoming foreshore lined with cafés, shops and picnic spots. It’s a favourite with those who enjoy kayaking, sailing or simply strolling along the water’s edge. Its smaller scale and community feel make it a true escape from busier tourist hubs, without losing access to essentials.

Bouddi National Park is minutes away, with scenic walking tracks leading to Box Head lookout and pristine beaches such as Putty and Tallow. From here you can take in panoramic views across Broken Bay to Palm Beach. Neighbouring Pretty Beach and Killcare are just a short drive, providing even more opportunities to explore.
