WOOLWICH
The next ferry took me to


The Woolwich / Balmain Ferry does not go so frequently, hourly service only, except during peak hours. 
The return trip takes 1 hour.

This ferry goes also west under the Bridge,
past Goat Island, 




                                       




into Mort Bay













around Ballast Point,







across Snails Bay, 




and on to  Birchgrove.




At Woolwich I had a good view of the Woolwich Dock. 











The next ferry stop is Cockatoo Island.

Cockatoo Island is very popular since it has become a National Park.


It has a rich convict and shipbuilding history. Now many of cultural events happen here.


Nice to see the old Coal Loader at Ball Head Bay from the ferry.



Passing Balls Head,













                                           then Blues Point











    


                      and Lavender Bay.






This ferry trip was great, it took me past most of my harbour walks along the water’s edge.
