Clontarf Reserve

Clontarf Reserve is a beautiful spot to visit, especially in the evenings. The sunsets here are lovely, and the area has a calm, peaceful atmosphere that makes it perfect for a relaxing walk or simply sitting and enjoying the view. A very pleasant place to unwind and take in the surroundings.

Clontarf’s netted tidal pool can be found smack dab in the middle of Clontarf Beach, overlooked by large lush lawns shaded by Norfolk Pines. It’s perfect for picnics and the place is buzzing with families doing just that, while plenty more hug the shoreline shallows of this calm and safe stretch of Sydney Harbour. When you swim out towards the shark net the delighted squeals of children fade into the background and you can relax and take in the beautiful surrounds of bobbing boats and sunny skies. It’s all very civilised and genteel, as you’d expect from this well-to-do North Shore neighbourhood. The ample car park ($10 per hour) is packed with Teslas and Beemers, while the Bosk Clontarf kiosk serves fancy bowls, upmarket burgers and kombucha. This is definitely one of the better harbour tidal pools and the facilities are all first-rate. We’ll be filling this one under “worth returning to”.

Make this spot ideal for families. The water was crystal clear and I enjoyed the swim 🏊‍♀️ at the end of clontarf beach is castle Rock reserve which leads to castle rock beach. Great atmosphere. Metered Park is $10 per hour, but a little further back you can find free parking 😉Clontarf Beach and Reserve is widely considered one of Sydney’s premier family-friendly destinations. Located in Middle Harbour (technically in the suburb of Clontarf, just across from Mosman’s The Spit), it offers a more tranquil, village-like atmosphere compared to the bustling surf beaches of Bondi or Manly. ​The Vibe ​Clontarf is less about "riding waves" and more about "slow days." Because it faces the harbour, the water is exceptionally calm, making it a sanctuary for parents with toddlers and anyone who prefers a peaceful float over a surf session. The backdrop of the Spit Bridge and bobbing yachts gives it a scenic, nautical charm. ​Key Features ​The Tidal Pool: A large, netted swimming enclosure at the sou

A great family oriented reserve with cafe and nearby dog beach. Has a covered play ground, kiosk with a new menu, toilets and one or two picnic sheds. Always very clean. Some off street parking but this can be an issue during summertime. Water station to refill bottles if you are doing a walk.

Great spot for families, barbecues, parties and picnics with plenty of parking available. Has a small pool and playground which are great for kids. There is also a kiosk and restaurant . The dog friendly Sandy Bay is only a short stroll away also. There is also a popular restaurant on the nearby marina.
