Nestled in the heart of Double Bay, Steyne Park is a stunning harbourside oasis that invites visitors to unwind and soak in the breathtaking views of the Sydney Harbour. This vibrant park, located at 2 William St, is not just a place to relax; it’s a hub of community activity, offering a perfect blend of natural beauty and recreational opportunities. With its lush greenery, ample seating, and proximity to local attractions, Steyne Park is a must-visit for both locals and tourists alike.

While Steyne Park is primarily a green space, its location near the 18 Feet Yacht Club Café makes it an ideal spot for those looking to indulge in local culinary delights. Picture yourself enjoying a freshly brewed coffee or a delicious brunch while gazing at the shimmering waters of the harbour. The café offers a selection of delectable dishes, including their famous avocado toast topped with poached eggs and a sprinkle of chili flakes, perfect for a sunny afternoon.

For those with a sweet tooth, the café's signature dessert, a rich chocolate tart paired with fresh berries, is a must-try. Each bite is a delightful experience, balancing sweetness with a hint of tartness, making it the perfect treat after a leisurely day at the park.

Stepping into Steyne Park, visitors are greeted by a picturesque landscape that seamlessly blends with the vibrant atmosphere of Double Bay. The park is conveniently located near the Double Bay shopping area, making it an excellent stop for those looking to explore boutique shops and local markets. Additionally, the ferry stop at the northern end of the park provides easy access to the city, allowing for a delightful day trip.

One of the park's standout features is its expansive green space, perfect for picnics, family gatherings, or simply lounging under the shade of the trees. The park also boasts a fenced playground, making it a family-friendly destination. The recent upgrades to the playground have made it even more inviting for children, ensuring hours of fun.

 It is known for its beautiful harbour views and family-friendly atmosphere.

 Yes, there are both free and paid parking options nearby.

Lovely green space by the harbour for families, picnicking, exercise fanatics, locals walking their dogs, and outdoor activities of Double Bay Primary School located just across the street. There's a fenced kiddies area, an old bandstand, yacht club, quite clean public toilets, and shady trees. War memorial in southwest corner of park with monument of 1919 showing, unusually, a soldier with bandaged head.
Where the park meets the harbour there's no beach, and the water is, sadly, cluttered with rubbish. The ferry to the city leaves from a wharf at the park's northeast corner. A real downer is the number of unleashed dogs racing around the park mornings and evenings outside the one area where unleashed dogs are permitted.

Relatively small park with an open turf area and views of the water. There’s a few benches to sit on, but I feel like the design of the park could have been improved to make it more interesting/inviting and less like an open, exposed soccer field. The highlight of the park is a small WW1 memorial on the eastern side.

Overall, a nice spot to sit and relax (maybe a good stop on the walk between Rushcutters Bay and Rose Bay), but not a place I would travel solely to visit.

Basically recommended only for the locals or if you happen to pass by. Small beautiful park with great harbour views, picnic area, fenced playground, very small dog off leash area with a tiny beach. The off leash area is narrow and not fenced, only good for really calm dogs! The beach behind the boat house is only for humans and dogs are prohibited. The water might have lots of dead plants and leaves etc. Very few parking spots around the park with time limit.
