Very small park . You have to pay for parking so you might as well go to the beach just up the road

A quiet park for dog strolls, sunbathing away from the busy seafront. Plenty of parking (4P ticket). There is one park bench and plenty of sunshine in the morning.

Nice reserve that connects to Georges Heights trail.

Hidden gem, the bush track follows the old tram line, cutting deep through a solid rock pass, the surrounding bush has bad die-back. But still beautiful.
