In the early 20th century public access to the harbour foreshore was very rare. Things changed when the Vaucluse estate carved off some of their harbour side property and sold it to the public, thus making Nielsen Park. There's a lovely Edwardian tearoom and other original buildings dotted through the large property. There is also what looks like Virgin forest and beautiful views of the harbour. So...it's a wonderful place and I really enjoyed spending the afternoon there.
This is the end of the shark netted area. We went for a swim within the shark netted area and it was wonderfully refreshing.
A great time in Nielsen Park and I'm looking forward to another visit.
