Port Hacking suburb profile

Port Hacking is a quiet harbourside suburb in the Sutherland Shire, set on the southern side of the Port Hacking estuary. The suburb is defined by its waterfront outlook, sheltered bays and boat-friendly foreshore, attracting people who enjoy boating, fishing and relaxed coastal living. The streets are leafy with a mix of older weatherboard cottages and contemporary waterfront homes, many with private moorings or water views. Local life revolves around the water rather than a big retail centre, with easy access to Cronulla's beaches and shops and the bushland of the Royal National Park nearby. It suits families and downsizers seeking a peaceful harbourside address.
