Harrier Point Park

Climb the stairs at the bottom of Launch Road to find Harrier Point Park with its gorgeous harbour views, flying fox and basket swing for the kids. There’s also picnic tables and barbecues. Soon Harrier Point Park will become home to a giant interactive play sculpture, The Eye of the Bird by artist Philipp Meier, which you’ll be able to climb up inside. The 10-metre-tall pied shag, will offer a bird’s-eye view from a viewing platform in its head and a slide that pops out at its tail. Harrier Point Park was formerly the location of the Base Commander’s house (since relocated to the corner of Sunderland and Buckley Avenues).
