About Doyles on the Beach
Doyles on the Beach has been serving seafood at Watsons Bay since 1885. It is the classic Sydney Harbour lunch: a plate of fish, a cold drink, the skyline in the distance and sand under your feet. The Watsons Bay wharf is metres from the door, which makes it the single most popular water taxi destination on the harbour. Arrive by water taxi from Circular Quay in about 20 minutes and step off directly opposite the restaurant.
