New equipment including a double flying fox. There is also a nice boardwalk around the river inlet. If you sit quietly it is possible to see turtles. Known locally as the Pirate Park because the climbing equipment is in the shape of a ship.

Catch a train to the Quay, a ferry to anywhere return and you will have a great trip. We often take the ferry to Woolwich, a good length trip on relatively calm waters. A ferry to Manly or Watsons Bay is equally spectacular.
