Great little reserve with a kids playground ground. Public toilets. little sandy beach off to the side with no waves as it is within parramatta river area still. Has a look out and BBQ area

We've been here many times, it's always quiet and comfy, perfect for a picnic or BBQ with friends. It's busier on public holidays but with room for many groups it's not crowded. We went for a walk to the coal loader at Waverton with kids, it's fun for the kids.

A great spot for a picnic. Beautiful views of a small part of the Sydney harbour area and the city skyline. Nice little walks around the inlet that are easy on the legs. BBQ facilities for those wanting to cook up a storm (I didn’t on my visit). Public Toilets available. A great spot to laze in the sun and relax!

Great open area for picnics, large newly renovated children’s playground. Good views from the lookout and bustle walk. 15 mins from Waverton train station. Good anchorage for boats.

From St Leonard’s to Berry Island is a walkable distance & I visit every year just take in the serene beauty of this lovely place. The walk is good through wooded areas & the view breathtaking. I see a small heaven here.
