About Elizabeth Bay Marina
Elizabeth Bay Marina combines a small modern marina with a much larger field of swing moorings in one of Sydney Harbour's most attractive inner-eastern bays. The facility has 13 berths sized from approximately 12 to 15 metres and 47 surrounding swing moorings. We think its special quality is the blend of intimacy and location: owners receive professional marina attention within a historic waterfront setting, with the open harbour and central Sydney remarkably close.
The marina structure was completed in 2012 and includes additional fendering at every berth, a four-metre-wide skirted wave attenuator and properly fitted mooring lines supplied for each boat. Full amenities and professional staff are advertised, while the team monitors boats at both berths and moorings. Long-term tenants form the core customer base, with visits also available to eligible users of Addenbrooke's reciprocal marina network. General transient availability should never be assumed.
Swing-mooring users benefit from a seven-day tender context recorded in the governed YouSail profile, but current timing, fees and pickup arrangements need confirmation directly with the marina. Onsite tenants add genuine lifestyle value. The Lookout café serves coffee and brunch from a harbour-facing deck, while Ray White Marine provides yacht-brokerage expertise for owners considering a purchase or sale. Beare Park sits immediately beside the marina and adds green space to the waterfront.
Elizabeth Bay creates quick access to the main harbour, nearby anchorages and Sydney's eastern coves. That centrality brings traffic, ferry wash, racing fleets and event restrictions, so secure lines and thoughtful departure timing matter. Fuel, pump-out, heavy haul-out and a full working boatyard are not promoted as public onsite facilities. Owners should identify confirmed alternatives elsewhere on the harbour before those needs become urgent.
Our take is that Elizabeth Bay Marina suits owners who prioritise location, attentive care and a refined small-marina environment. The combination of 13 protected berths, 47 moorings, café and brokerage feels both practical and sociable. Confirm eligibility, availability, exact vessel fit, tender arrangements and amenities before arrival. Once those details are settled, this is a beautifully placed Sydney Harbour base where every boating day begins with an exceptional harbour view.
Services
Elizabeth Bay Marina provides 13 modern berths ranging from approximately 12 to 15 metres and 47 swing moorings around the facility. Berths include additional fendering and correctly fitted lines, while a four-metre-wide skirted wave attenuator helps protect the marina. Professional staff monitor boats, and the operator advertises full amenities for its customers.
Long-term tenants are the primary users, with visitor access available through Addenbrooke's reciprocal marina arrangements. A seven-day tender service is associated with the moorings, subject to current hours, fees and pickup procedures. The Lookout café provides waterfront coffee and brunch, and Ray White Marine offers yacht-brokerage services onsite.
Provide length, beam, draft, displacement and insurance details when enquiring. Confirm visitor eligibility, berth or mooring availability, tender access, amenities, utilities, security and parking. Public fuel, pump-out, heavy haul-out and boatyard services are not advertised, so plan them elsewhere. Allow for harbour traffic, wash and event controls, and use the marina team's arrival guidance when entering this compact inner-harbour setting. Ask about waste disposal, emergency contacts and after-hours access as well.
Ideal for
Sydney yacht and motorboat owners seeking a professionally managed long-term berth or swing mooring in a prestigious inner-harbour location, with café and brokerage convenience onsite.

To keep in mind
The marina focuses on long-term tenants and reciprocal-network visitors, so confirm eligibility. Tender arrangements need advance checking. Plan fuel, pump-out and heavy maintenance elsewhere, and secure the vessel for Sydney Harbour wash and traffic.
