Tambourine Bay Park is an off-leash area in Riverview with picnic tables, BBQ facilities, and parking. Dogs are excluded from the bushland areas and playground. The park connects to a harbour walk and tends to attract smaller dogs and a relaxed local crowd.

Came here for a dog date! The park is small but you can let your dog off leash, so our dogs loved it here! It was a pretty quiet park, but had picnic tables, bbq facilities and a kids playground. I think there was also a walking track towards the water, but I didn’t go down there so I’m not sure. There are multiple options for parking, both on the street and also in the small parking lot.

Our dog loves this park. Always friendly dogs around in the neighbourhood. Tends to be smaller dogs. Lots of space to run around. Beautiful walk around the school grounds or bush trail. However these are leaded. There is also a secret beach, secluded, great for those swimmers!

Wonderful place for family activities on weekends! I would like recommend this place, and also when my Coco come to Australia, sure I will take him to here! 🐶

Nice to take kids on a bush walk. It has small playground that my 2 year old enjoyed. Just requires more picnic seating areas as it can get a bit muddy after rain especially near the playground.

Set on expansive grounds in the leafy Lane Cove River area, it's hard to believe that a school can cover so much real estate. I find it difficult to understand how the students could learn anything with a plane flying over every 5 minutes or so. Also, a school with it's own observatory
