A retreat for adventurous souls
We had the most peaceful weekend getaway. Garethâs place was the perfect location to unwind and get away from the hustle and buzzle of Sydney. We loved the kayaks and used them as our daily mode of transportation. There was amole to do with trips to the Osyter Farm, secluded beaches and nice cafĂŠs. We thought it was so accommodating of Gareth to pick us up and brought us back to the station. Also the CD player and board games catapulted us into another timeâŚ. it was such a relaxing weekend! Highly recommend

Your guide to Dangar Island
All About Dangar Island
Dangar Island is a forested retreat on the Hawkesbury River near Brooklyn, just north of Sydney. Nestled between Brisbane Waters and Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, itâs a natural hideaway along the river. Being on the island is a unique experience, as there are no private cars allowed here, and wheelbarrows are the primary method for hauling goods from the ferry. The town was initially an artistsâ colony, and today attracts travelers for its secluded beach and stunning views across Broken Bay.
At just 30 hectares in area, Dangar Island can be walked in about two hours along a circular bushland path. The lower ground takes you past the Bowling Club and the only shop and cafe on the island. The higher ground offers picturesque views of the Hawkesbury River and the community hall, which supports numerous groups and workshops. The island has a healthy mix of natural and cultural history, from lush vegetation and migratory birds to Indigenous engravings and rock shelters.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Dangar Island
Dangar Islandâs year-round temperatures are relatively steady and pleasant. Spring offers plenty to do in the surrounding Sydney area, including the Sculpture by the Sea art installation on Bondi Beach every November. December to February is the warmest time of year â visit Dangar Island in January for an epic Australia Day celebration on Bradleys Beach. Autumn temperatures start to dip and nights become a little cooler with breezes off the bay, so pack an extra layer for sunset strolls. May offers a chance to spot ocean wildlife as itâs the start of the whale-watching season. Winter on Dangar Island and the surrounding area is relatively mild, with lower temperatures from June to August, making it an ideal time for walking the island and exploring nearby national parks.

One of the few accessible beaches in Hornsby Shire, Bradleys Beach hosts events throughout the year, including an annual New Yearâs Eve celebration.
Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park
Australiaâs second-oldest national park combines historical experiences â such as the Aboriginal Heritage walk â and scenic beauty, making it a perfect day trip from Dangar Island.
