<MENU>Extremely protected bay to the North West of Cowan Point. On the Port side heading in you will come across pinta Bay. There are 3 public moorings here, this is an extremely popular bay due to it's protection and isolation.
<P>There is plenty of room to anchor albeit in deep water within the Bay. Be careful when closing the head of the Bay as the depth reduces rapidly to be no more than 1metre at low tide for the last 100m. Of interest is the ruins of an old boatshed which operated a rowing boat hire service in the early 1900's.</P>
<P>The boatshed burnt down on 2 separate occasions and has now been resumed by the NPWS. There is a rough road that is visible climbing the steep grade that led to what is now the Pacific Hwy.</P>
<P>This track was pushed through by George Rhodes in the early days of the boatshed and has subsequently been named Con's scar due to the dramatic mark it has left on the landscape. If you follow the line of this track to the ridge you can actually see traffic on the F3.</P>
<P>A bush walking track leading off from the Southern side of the ruins winds it's way up to the F3 and via a pedestrian bridge to Cowan railway station. It is about a 2 hour round trip and well worth the effort with great views and certain sense that you have cheated the city and found an oasis that only a few know about.</P>
<P>Seeing the constant flow of traffic on the F3 serves as a reminder of how lucky we are to have this jewel so close to a major city. Why not catch the train to Brooklyn and back, just because you can!!</P>
<P>This is a holiday, an adventure and really serves to increase your love of this cruising ground, Unlike the Barrier Reef that is big and in your face, the beauty of this area is in the detail that you have to look a little harder to find, but when you do the rewards are enormous.</P></MENU>
