Best Tide State to Fish Darook Park (Cronulla)
Gunnamatta Bay opens south into Port Hacking but sits well back behind the Cronulla peninsula, so it's sheltered from ocean swell entirely and takes most of the sting out of the southerly buster that shuts the open coast. A westerly blows straight down the bay into your face and chops up the flat, which is the wind that puts you off; a light northerly or a still morning is ideal. The run-out tide is the working window — it drains the flat and lines fish along the deeper edges and the moored-boat channel. After heavy rain the bay can colour up and freshen as Port Hacking flushes, which slows the bite for a day or two but rarely makes it unfishable.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Darook Park (Cronulla) typically time sessions around the tide for sand whiting, dusky flathead, yellowfin bream, luderick, and silver trevally.
