    Very nice beach to swim and soak up the sun. The beach was close by and not crowded. Very clean and not congested.

    A beautifully maintained historic home set in well maintained gardens and managed by volunteers.

    Each room is set up as if the family were still there so it is easy to imagine what life in the Victorian era was like. Lots of fine antique furniture and interesting objects.

    The volunteers cooked fresh scones which could be eaten on the verandah overlooking the gardens.

    One room has an exhibition about the St George area.

    The last time we were in the area were years ago. Now the entire area, Cook Park and beach front has transformed to a beautiful place, clean and spacious, the tall trees are trimed with style, the sand have definitely gone much finer and whiter than I recalled. A lovely place for a walk, relax and just soak up some sun. Definitely will revisit.

    This is a large park that contains a sporting oval, a children's play area, plenty of seating, walking paths and amenities. There are a few picnic tables as well. This park looks nicely maintained and is clean and tidy.
    Located between the Princess Highway and Sydney’s International Airport, this park borders the river to the north and high rise apartments to the south.

    I was very impressed with Abyss Scuba Diving from the moment I first reached out to them to request a private PADI refresher course and enriched air certification. They were very responsive and worked around my schedule and needs to deliver exactly what I wanted. A very special thank you to Christy who was my instructor. He was incredibly friendly, patient, and professional and I felt very fortunate to have him as an instructor. He gave me the confidence I needed to return to the sport after a long hiatuses. If I am ever back in Sydney, I will definitely stop by Abyss again. Thank you Christy and Abyss!

    Great local park because of all the big, old, varied trees shading well kept grass. Is not that big - the adjoining sports fields are much bigger - and affected by one main road but it's a great park if you live nearby.

    First time to this theatre. Love life community theatre and this didn’t disappoint. The play was brilliant. The venue is intimate and comfortable. Easy to get to and some parking available next door and in nearby streets. It was a cold day but the theatre was warm and inviting. Would certainly go to see a play again here.

    Nice little waterside park surrounded by the new development, except for the highway side so it gets quite noisy. Limited access points but it's not closed off at night and it creates a sanctuary feel (except for the highway) and means it's not a cycle route. Some old buildings, some nice nooks, well maintained, and views of Fatima Island.

    As it is located along the Botany Bay strip it is nice and calm with no large waves so you can swim safely. It is netted so it is a little safer than other beaches. Coles and a number of food options are just across from the beach so you can grab a bite, drink or anything else you fancy. While it definitely doesn’t replace going to a proper beach it isn’t a bad option.

    Today's pray rooms of any religion or beliefs must be provided with proper parking to match in excess their capacity.
    Specially when religions make it obligatory to attend. Heaven has plenty of space in the universe so build a matching parking space for the believers so we can attend in transit to heaven?
