Tamarama Park

Dogs welcome — rules apply•Dog rules

Be the first to share a photo of this spot.

Tamarama Park is a coastal park behind the beach at Tamarama with grass, BBQ facilities and a playground. Dogs are allowed off-leash in the central upper gully only; the lower park, beach and areas within 10 metres of playgrounds and barbecues are dog-prohibited. The gully gives a contained space for a run. A handy off-leash spot above the coast.

Dog rules

Dog off-leash play permitted within Tamarama Gully designated area. Dogs must be on a leash outside of this area. Lower park, beach and within 10 metres of playground/BBQ are prohibited. (Source: Waverley Council — waverley.nsw.gov.au)

My favorite beach so far. It's small, tranquil yet exclusive-looking. Its beauty is made up with cristal clear water, big wave, golden sand, smooth green grass carpets and and typical gorgeous beach people there. Having BBQ with your buddies there is a nice idea.

Good barbecue facilities next to beach+ enough room to play sports and dance ( salsa)

Beauty is the key word. Aboriginal history and perspective is sadly missing. The gully waterfall and pool below must hide secrets to be respected and protected.

Conveniently apart from Bondi beach, this beach offers seclusion without losing any of the functionalities of the Sydney beaches.

Very nice looking area with a beach just not too far off. Lots of empty and open space for doing whatever with your friends or family. Extremely rich looking place too
