Balmain West ferry wharf is a ferry wharf located on Iron Cove serving the Sydney suburb of Balmain. As of the 18 August 2025 timetable revision, the wharf is only serviced on weekdays during the morning and afternoon peak.

History

Until October 2013, It was served by Sydney Ferries Parramatta River services operating between Circular Quay and Cockatoo Island. The single wharf was served by First Fleet class ferries. The service was withdrawn due to low patronage.
In November 2024 the then Transport Minister Jo Haylen announced Balmain West would reopen in the second half of 2025. As of December 2024, construction has started.
On 23 July 2025 Transport Minister John Graham announced that the wharf would reopen on 18 August 2025.
It was also announced that Transport for NSW was also assessing the feasibility of a new weekend ferry route to connect the inner harbour suburbs to the city, as well as a service between Barangaroo and the new Sydney Fish Market.
