At times of flood on the Hawkesbury we have not observed any intrusion of river water into Pittwater or Careel Bay. Development on the watershed of Pittwater is primarily residential with substantial areas along the northern shores reserved as National Park. Careel Bay is shallow, but well protected from prevailing winds. Surrounding lands have been developed for residential purposes and water flowing into the Bay. Fig. 1.
