Station Beach, Sandy beach in Pittwater, Australia
Station Beach lies on the western side of Governor Phillip Park, divided by a long jetty and cafe into two distinct sections. The beach includes sandy areas and connects to surrounding park facilities and walking paths.
The beach emerged as a key location for maritime activities during colonial times, linking Pittwater to Sydney's broader waterway system. Its strategic position made it important for early harbor development.
The beach serves as a social hub where local swimmers and water sports enthusiasts gather throughout the year. The location offers a sense of connection to both the water and the nearby national park landscape.
Access the beach through Governor Phillip Park or via Beach Road, with parking available near the Boathouse jetty. The waters in both sections are generally calm, making them suitable for swimming and casual water activities.
From the northern section, visitors can spot Lion Island just offshore, which hosts around 300 breeding pairs of little penguins. This penguin population is a notable feature that makes watching from the beach memorable.
