Brisbane Water is the northern arm of Broken Bay on the east coast of New South Wales Australia. Brisbane Water is named after Sir Thomas Brisbane, Governor of New South Wales between 1820 and 1825. The towns of Gosford, Davistown, Woy Woy and Ettalong line the shores of Brisbane Water, which also contains several islands including St Huberts Island. Brisbane Water is mostly shallow and tidal. The inlet narrows at "The Rip" which has a rapid tidal current.
