Story:

Narara Creek to Railway Bridge in Gosford is an easy 10Km kayaking. In this trip I landed my Kayak from near the Gavenlock Oval. Alternatively beach near the Sailing Club in Gosford can be used for this.

Narara Creek is enveloped by Mangrove trees on both sides. Water is deep, allowing access even in low tide up to Showground Rd Bridge near Paddy Clifton Oval. Creek is tidal but waters are safe for beginners.

Creek provides very little landing zone, particularly in high tide. However there is a sandy little section near the Gavenlock Oval and also at the back of Bait and Tackle shop in Dell Rd.

Narara creek is enclosed by Industrial and Commercial development on Mans Rd side and by recreational areas like Golf course, Gosford Showground and Gosford Racecourse on the other side.

Have a nice trip.

Tips:
Watch for the shollow areas in Brisbane waters where you may hit some rocks with oysters.
