About

Overview & Vibe

Ettalong Diggers sits right on the waterfront on The Esplanade at Ettalong Beach, overlooking Broken Bay and Lion Island with views south to Palm Beach. It has been the heart of the Peninsula for more than eighty years.

Setting & Style

Ceremonies happen on Ettalong Beach itself or on the club's nearby viewing decks, which take up to sixty guests, before moving into a reception overlooking Broken Bay. The rooms scale widely: one takes seventy banquet or seventy cocktail and can host its own ceremony, another eighty banquet with natural light and a permanent bar, another two hundred banquet, and the largest three hundred banquet. Catering is priced per head with a five-hour standard beverage package included on most packages, and a dedicated wedding coordinator is assigned to every event. Getting guests there is easy — ample free parking, Woy Woy station nearby with a courtesy bus, or the ferry across from Palm Beach.

Ideal For

Couples wanting a large, affordable waterfront reception with a beach ceremony a few steps away.
