History of Neutral Bay It was the early colonial period of Australia from where the name 'Neutral Bay' originated. This bay was used for docking all foreign vessels; it got its name Neutral, unlike others zoned for different incoming ships. The Aboriginal name for the suburb was 'Wirra-Birra' which was further declared as a neutral harbour by Governor Arthur Philip in 1789. The main motive was to discourage convicts from escaping as this bay was far away from Sydney Cove.
