Taxi bookings in Watsons Bay

Watsons Bay is at the very end of the eastern peninsula, with seafood restaurants and a hotel on the harbour, a ferry wharf, Camp Cove beach and the cliffs at The Gap. On warm weekends it's very busy and parking disappears.

Only a couple of roads lead in and out, and they back up on summer afternoons. Book a little early if you have somewhere to be.
