What people say
Right next to Waverton park and also on the way to or from Coal Loader, one of those sites that is sorta hidden away but also is accessible. Great view of the harbor and city, used to have the old oil and petrol storage tanks in here and now its gone you can see these huge circular areas exposing sandstone cliffs. Has walking paths, some stairs, some lookouts and dogs allowed as well.
There are public toilets a stones throw away at Waverton Park and also at Balls Head Reserve. This is where the old BP site used to be and a great spot to go for a walk. It has a stunning view of the city and is a perfect place to watch the fireworks to welcome in the new year.
My friend T and I went here the first time today Thursday 07/11/2024. It was late afternoon and the weather was not very good so it's quite quiet. I like this park as it has great views looking towards Sydney Habour Bridge and Sydney CBD. My friend didn't want to walk a lot so I couldn't go further towards Balls Head. But next time I would spend more time here. It's really nice.
Great view ... that's all! Great spot for pictures and romantic picnics or just self reflection..
Nice view of harbour bridge. Very close to coal loader. An easy spot for NYE fireworks.
