Balmoral Beach

Popular with families, Balmoral Beach is a beautiful harbour beach with calm waters, a swimming enclosure and lovely picnic spots. The heritage-listed Balmoral Bathers Pavilion is adjacent to the beach. Built in the late 1920s, the white pavilion houses the acclaimed Bathers’ Pavilion restaurant.

You’ll find many more delicious beachside places to eat along The Esplanade and at the Balmoral Boatshed. Or you can buy takeaway fish ‘n’ chips and enjoy them on the soft white sand while marvelling at splendid vistas of Sydney Harbour, one of the great natural harbours in the world.

Or bring a picnic hamper and relax in the pretty parklands next to the beach. Getting to Balmoral Beach is easy, just 20 minutes by car from Silkari Suites at Chatswood.

You’ll find a great variety of things to do, from swimming and snorkelling to kayaking, windsurfing and sailing. At the Balmoral Sailing School, you can learn to sail or hire kayaks, sailboards and stand-up paddleboards to explore the sheltered bay.
