Rushcutters Bay Park Playground

Honestly one of the better spots on this side of the harbour for families with little ones — the bay views alone make the trip worth it. It’s got your standard slides, swings, and a climbing structure, nothing fancy, but toddlers absolutely love it and there’s enough open grass to let them run themselves tired. Grab a coffee from the kiosk nearby and park yourself on a bench while the kids do their thing. The whole area feels genuinely spacious, which makes a big difference when you’ve got a wobbly two-year-old who needs room to roam.
