Great park. There's a large oval with cricket pitch, and batting cages, a public toilet that's usually unlocked, Bins and free doggy bags. There's plenty of shade around the park, especially on the walking track around it. There's a children's playground on one side across the small street and a lovely little beach with views of the Harbour bridge. Dogs allowed everywhere, unleashed except the oval. The water can get dirty, just depends on weather and clean up efforts of the locals, usually looks bad after heavy rain and at low tide.

Good place to catch the New Years eve fireworks, the grounds were clean and kept in very good condition. The location provided view of the bridge and also the Parramatta River fireworks barge, so you get two views. Just be warned that the noise of the Parramatta River barge is very loud, if you have smaller kids bring ear muffs. Local council provided more than enough portable restrooms but the local restrooms of the grounds were clean as well.

Birchgrove Park Birchgrove Oval is located on the waterfront of Sydney Harbour. Great views of Sydney Harbour It was one of the first publicly developed parks in Sydney and is one of our premier sports and recreation venues. It is regarded as the spiritual home of rugby league in Australia because it hosted the first professional match in 1908.

It’s a great place to watch fireworks. I saw it recommended on Red Book. In the afternoon, we set out to watch the fireworks and there was still a spot. It's a bit difficult to park nearby. If you come here to watch the New Year's Eve fireworks, it is recommended to bring a power bank, picnic mat, umbrella, garbage bag, napkin, food and jacket.

Beautiful, historic park which hosted the first game of the NSW Rugby League in 1908. Amazing cafe just opposite, called The Gladstone Store with delicious coffee. Street parking can be tricky at peak times. Park includes views of the harbour bridge, crickets nets, cricket pitch, water bubblers, dog bags, seating.

Lovely spot to settle down with a picnic but look out on windy days. Between the retainer wall and the anchored boats is a swimming beach, which is also popular with people taking their dogs for ball fetching exercises. You can clearly see the Sydney Harbour Bridge from the beach
