Mooney Mooney, located approximately 50 kilometres north of Sydney, is a small waterfront village in the Central Coast region of New South Wales, Australia. It is situated at the end of a peninsula extending into the Hawkesbury River and is part of the Central Coast Council local government area.
Mooney Mooney serves as a critical junction where the Pacific Motorway and Pacific Highway cross from the Central Coast into the Greater Sydney Metropolitan area on the south side of the Hawkesbury River. Public transportation is available through CDC NSW's bus route 592, which connects Hornsby to Brooklyn via Asquith, Mount Colah, Mount Kuring-Gai, and Berowra, passing through Mooney Mooney.
In 1844, early colonial settler George Peat commenced a ferry service across the Hawkesbury River from Mooney Mooney Point to Kangaroo Point on the southern bank. By 1930, this service was replaced by diesel-powered vehicular ferries, which became obsolete upon completing the Peats Ferry Road Bridge in 1945. Remnants of the former ferry docks can still be seen on the foreshore of Mooney Mooney Point.
The Mooney Mooney Club, located at 5 Kowan Road, offers dining and entertainment options for residents and visitors. Deerubbun Reserve, a 1.93-hectare area adjoining the motorway, has been developed for public access to the Hawkesbury River. The reserve's facilities include a wharf, boat ramps, parking areas, picnic tables, and amenities, making it a popular spot for boating and fishing enthusiasts.
Mooney Mooney's unique charm and appeal result from its combination of historical significance, natural beauty, and modern amenities.
