Brilliant walk onto Blues point reserve and great for the occasional chit chat. This is a go-to spot for all motorcycle riders as you get a great view of the Harbour bridge. There is also a lovely park there which is great for picnics but parking can be a bit challenging to find. I believe there is some construction so might not be worth visiting for a few months but definitely worth checking out once all that has settled.

You need to walk through Blues Point Reserve and climb the steps up to the old defence fort to capture these amazing views of the bridge and harbour. With the marine traffic there are always interesting views.

Nice, can be a bit touristy but still good.
