Pittwater is an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales. Located in Sydney's north-east, it is 175.32 km2 in size, and comprises a part of the local government area of Northern Beaches Council, mostly the portion that was formerly Pittwater Council.
It is named after Pittwater, a body of water the district roughly surrounds.
The seat is currently vacant, following the resignation of incumbent Liberal MP Rory Amon on 30 August 2024 after he was charged with child sex offences. A by-election will be held on 19 October 2024.
