Marra Marra House is located in the river settlement of Marra Marra, just a few minutes boat travel from the junction of Berowra Waters & the Hawkesbury River.

Marra Marra is a tidal access location which means that on certain low tides that occur around the new moon & full moon the tide is especially low therefore no boats come or go for a few hours during that particular low tide window

This is very easy to work around, just as the lucky few locals living here do.

We will assist with the logistics if relevant during your stay

The tidal access ensure the bay of Marra Marra is frequented by very few boats, so there is a special sense of tranquility & seclusion while staying.
