Cabarita is a bayside suburb in the Inner West^[2] of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Cabarita is located 16 kilometres west of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of the City of Canada Bay.

Cabarita is a picturesque suburb on the Parramatta River, north of Concord. Opened in 2015, when the water was deemed clean and safe for swimmers after 70 years, the 200-metre long Cabarita Beach in Cabarita Park is one of the most proximate swimming beaches to many suburbs in western Sydney.^[3] The park features a shaded playground area, a large conservatory, a toddler pool, a kiosk, and barbecue spots with a hilly area that provides water views.^[4]

Cabarita is an Aboriginal word meaning by the water.^[5]

David Anderson, a private soldier in the NSW Corps was granted land in this area in 1795. An area of Cabarita Point was reserved for public recreation in 1856. The reserve was expanded in 1880 with the addition of 9.7 hectares of adjoining land, known as Correy's Garden.^[5] The pavilion from which Governor-General Lord Hopetoun proclaimed the Federation of Australia in 1901 was later moved from Centennial Park to Cabarita Park.

In the past, the suburb consisted of swampland and heavy industry. Housing developments replaced the industry and the swamps. Until 1948, an electric tramway ran down Cabarita Road to connect the suburb with Burwood, Enfield and Ashfield via Cabarita Junction near the corner of Mortlake Street.

Cabarita has a number of heritage-listed sites, including:

• Cabarita Road: Federation Pavilion, Cabarita Park^[6]
