Opening in 1885 Doyle’s at Watson’s Bay is Australia’s first seafood restaurant! Family owned and operated for over 5 generations, it is unquestionably a Sydney institution. Offering both indoor and outdoor dining, the restaurant is located right on the foreshore of Watson’s Bay and overlooks the panorama of Sydney Harbour. 

Indulge your senses with a magnificent pre-lunch Sydney Harbour Scenic Flight starting from Rose Bay. Once back on the water we'll transfer you by water taxi the short distance to Watson's Bay wharf and Doyles Restaurant. 

Visitors to Watson's Bay have the opportunity to enhance and appreciate the wonderful views and colonial connections by walking from the village to South Head. The walk takes in the Sydney Harbour National Park, passes Lady Jane Beach – (where clothing is optional!), and continues to Hornby Lighthouse. You'll discover Camp Cove, the spot where the First Fleet landed in Sydney Harbour. You'll see Watson’s Bay's most breathtaking vistas are at The Gap - site of Sydney's worst maritime tragedy when the Dunbar was shipwrecked in 1857. After lunch board the graceful Sydney ferry at your leisure for the return to Circular Quay.
