Drive a Boat on the Hawkesbury River!
While Windsor was once known as the wheat farming “Bread Basket”, it’s now a part of Sydney’s suburbs due to sprawl over centuries, and a historic place to visit for your General Boat Licence Course or Boat & Jet Ski/PWC Licence Course.
It’s only 30 minutes drive from Bella Vista, Dural, Kings Langley, and Kurrajong.
During the course you’ll get to take in the views of nearby farms as you admire the twisting Hawkesbury River.
Though it’s far inland, the Hawkesbury is still affected by the rise and fall of the tide, and you can take a boat from here all the way to the sea – though we definitely won’t have time to do that in your course!
The rainfall running off the fertile land gets re-used by local Fish, Prawn and Oyster farmers to produce some of the best inland seafood in Australia.
