Great place for breakfast/lunch on a beautiful day. Tucked beneath Regatta Rose Bay, right on the water at Rose Bay Marina, Tide Café is the Eastern Suburb’s secret hotspot.

Parks & Nature

This was formerly disused railway land which has been transformed by Wendy Whiteley, widow of a the Australian contemporary artist Brett Whiteley. It's a little known, hidden away, garden that's great for the kids to get lost in. Beautiful views of Sydney harbour and the perfect place for a picnic on a hot sunny day. Take the circular quay ferry from Rose Bay wharf and disembark at Milsons Point. Walk through the iconic Lunar Park and then along the foreshore. Make sure to keep a look out for the random miniature works of art along the way.
