Booker Bay is located on the Woy Woy Peninsula on the Central Coast of NSW. Staying in Booker Bay lets you enjoy the scenic coastal village of Ettalong Beach, next to the well-known Brisbane Waters. South-east of Woy Woy, this peaceful fishing town is about 80 kilometres north of Sydney and is part of the Gosford Shire. You can reach Booker Bay from Sydney and Newcastle via the M1 motorway and it’s a short drive from the Woy Woy railway station. Booker Bay and its neighboring suburb Ettalong Beach were originally home to the Dharruk and Darkinjung Indigenous communities before being discovered by European settlers after the establishment of Botany Bay.

The area keeps its historic charm as a former fishing and boat-building community. Arts, crafts, and good food are popular here, along with Ettalong’s Cinema Paradiso theatre. Ettalong Beach, just minutes away, has a variety of cafes, restaurants, homeware stores, and more. Beach lovers can visit nearby Ocean and Umina Beaches, and surfers can enjoy the famous local spot called Box. The local wharf offers regular ferry services between Ettalong, Wagstaffe, and Palm Beach.

Though it’s a popular holiday spot for tourists, many permanent residents live here. Walk along the foreshore and the beautiful beaches and you’ll easily spot the locals – they’re the ones who look relaxed!
