JAMES WATKINSON RESERVE

Public BBQ

The park is a hidden gem in the Pyrmont peninsula, offering fantastic views and a playground for young children. It features BBQ facilities, picnic tables, swings, a small play structure, and a pirate ship-themed walkway and bridge. However, there is a lack of shade, seating, and restrooms, which can be inconvenient for visitors. The park is not easily accessible for those with prams due to stairs and a hill. Despite these limitations, it is still considered a great local park with a good playground and beautiful views of Sydney Harbour and the Harbour Bridge.
