Steyne Park is a lovely green space by the harbour in Double Bay, popular with families, picnickers and local dog walkers. Dogs are allowed off-leash at all times in the northern end only, except during organised sailing events, and on-leash elsewhere, kept clear of the playground. There is shade, toilets, a playground and parking on hand. A relaxed harbourside park with an off-leash northern section.
Off-leash at all times (Northern End only), except during organised sailing events. Prohibited: children's playground. Dogs must be under effective control. Owners must clean up after their dogs. Penalty for off-leash in an on-leash area may exceed $330. Source: Woollahra Municipal Council – Walking Your Dog (woollahra.nsw.gov.au/Services/Animals-and-Pets/Walking-Your-Dog)
Lovely green space by the harbour for families, picnicking, exercise fanatics, locals walking their dogs, and outdoor activities of Double Bay Primary School located just across the street. There's a fenced kiddies area, an old bandstand, yacht club, quite clean public toilets, and shady trees. War memorial in southwest corner of park with monument of 1919 showing, unusually, a soldier with bandaged head. Where the park meets the harbour there's no beach, and the water is, sadly, cluttered with rubbish. The ferry to the city leaves from a wharf at the park's northeast corner. A real downer is the number of unleashed dogs racing around the park mornings and evenings outside the one area where unleashed dogs are permitted.
Incredible shaded area, the natural fragrance of the foliage reminds me of sweet cotton candy.
Safe and well known area, has most facilities besides showers close walking distance to lots of places beach’s shops train station, flexible parking times, just be careful I had someone hit the back of my car and never left any details.
Stunning harbourside neighbourhood park at the edge of Double Bay shopping area. Great Harbour views and tranquility. Plenty of shade from trees. Plus, lots of room to kick a ball around. Seating and tables located here. The ferry stop is located at the northern end of the park. Bicycle parking and a drinking fountain are located near the ferry stop entry.
Steyne Park is host to the Double Bay Christmas Festival. Combining music, faier and food for great afternoon.
