What to expect
Located opposite on the Sydney Harbour foreshore opposite Cockatoo Island, Woolwich Dock and Parklands is a precinct steeped in maritime history. Due to its placement at the junction of Parramatta and Lane Cove Rivers, the Traditional Owners – the Wallumedegal People – know the area as Moocooboola, which means 'the meeting of the rivers'. The centrepiece of this destination is Woolwich Dock, which dates to 1901. The tradespeople of Woolwich Dock continue to proudly uphold the site's maritime legacy, boat owners a full range of repair and maintenance services. The surrounding paddocks and parks, linked by scenic walking tracks, are the perfect place for a picnic. Relax and have lunch at the Deckhouse restaurant and function centre on the foreshore of Woolwich Dock.
