Great view of the harbour bridge. Finding parking is a job though.

A peaceful & secluded picnic area with beautiful views of goats island right opposite, blues point reserve, Barangaroo reserve & Sydney harbour can be quite romantic to take a partner for a stroll, picnic or just to sit on the coastal rocks of the bay & watch the sunset.. this field is filled with green grass which is backed by apartments along the coast of Balmain East
