About Morning Bay
Morning Bay is a secluded, road-inaccessible locality on the western shores of Pittwater in northern Sydney, New South Wales, approximately 40 kilometres north of the Sydney CBD. It sits within Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park and falls under the Northern Beaches Council local government area. With only a handful of permanent residences accessible by ferry or private boat, Morning Bay is one of the most unique and tightly-held enclaves in Greater Sydney. The bay itself offers sheltered waterfront living amid native bushland with panoramic Pittwater views.
Life at Morning Bay revolves around the water — kayaking, sailing, and swimming are everyday pastimes for residents and visitors alike. The Church Point Ferry Service provides regular water taxi and ferry connections to Church Point on the mainland, linking residents to buses toward Mona Vale and the Sydney B-Line network. Facilities are minimal in the locality itself, with residents relying on Church Point and Mona Vale for shopping and services. It attracts those seeking a tranquil, off-grid lifestyle within reach of Sydney.
Morning Bay falls under postcode 2105 and is governed by the Northern Beaches Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Mackellar, while state elections fall under the Pittwater electorate.
