Ballast Point Park - Birchgrove (NSW)

derek williamson A great spot to while away a few hours. You can claim er over the rocks, have a break on the bay walk or launch a kayak easily off the beach. There is a company that will deliver a kayak here for you. The facilities are a bit old, but that is part of the charm. You can also search out the old Rodd family crypt.

A Cool water feature and good for kids

Rashyd (Espy) Great park for barbecue and plenty of space for picnic right next to the water. Paid Parking available (24hrs). Some treet parking is also available but maybe hard to find during busy times.

L Lozaant BEAUTIFUL spot for locals to walk along the water. Usually clean and tidy when I visit.

Ying Wang Nice autumn atmosphere

John karmas Mort Bay Park Mort Bay Park has numerous open space areas, an all abilities playground and great views of Sydney Harbour. Built in 1854, it was Australias first large scale dry dock. Balmain wharf is at the beginning of this park During WWI and WWII the docks were busy places, building minesweepers and corvettes. Morts Dock and engineering closed in 1958. Dog friendly Park I had a really friendly bulldog make friends with me, cute and friendly bulldog!!

wilhelm normandy The Sydney Fernery is a quiet corner inside the Royal Botanic Garden. Its a refreshing place to see some exotic plants.

Maria Heaton Beautiful place to visit. It is free and is wheelchair friendly with lift access.

Joseph Martocchio I highly recommend taking a tour with 24 Hours in Sydney. We were on the Sydney Smells & Sights – A Smorgasbord for the Senses tour for 3 hours. Simon and John explained the history and contemporary issues of Newtown and Sydney while we walked the neighborhoods. We also had the opportunity to meet small shop owners. Simon and John also engaged in fun conversation and were interested in knowing about us. Simon took several pictures of us at points of interest and shared them as a courtesy. Its obvious that they love what they do and have a lot of pride in their country and community. I wish I had more time to take another tour with them. I will certainly do so when I return to Sydney.
