Hospital Bay
✨ Hidden gem
Hospital Bay sits quietly within Pender Harbour, one of the most sheltered and intricate waterways on the Sunshine Coast. You drop anchor here and find yourself within easy reach of the tight-knit communities scattered around the harbour, including local shops and the Garden Bay area just a short dinghy ride away. The bay takes its name from the old St. Mary's Hospital that once served this remote stretch of coast, giving it a small piece of genuine history worth knowing.
