Dangar Island Travel Guide

Sydney

Bradley’s beach was a lovely spot to stop and have our picnic lunch. It’s also the location you can see remains of shellfish which is evidence of Aboriginal occupation.
Dangar Island is very Isolated.  But luckily it has its very own Convenience store stocking all the necessary items. it doubles with a delicious cafe within its doors and also holds the mail in these trendy mailboxes outside.  
The locals use wheel burrows to carry their groceries up the hill from the ferry (brought over on the mainland) and their taxi service is a golf buggy.
This little Island is very isolated with access only by boat. A ferry ride from Brooklyn will get you there in about 15 minutes. The ferry service is fairly frequent and reasonable in price. $6.70 Adults and $3.40 children over 5/Seniors/Concession, this is each way.
The walking track around Dangar Island is just 3.3km from the ferry wharf. Up the hills and down around bends, the views across the Hawkesbury river are second to none. Lots of quirky and artistic finds and the flora and fauna is abundant with a lot of native flowers in bloom.

A view from the window in the train as you pass through the Hawkesbury heading north to the Central Coast and beyond.  Sun setting but the water reflects the sky leavining it looking like a staircase into the clouds.
