Sydney's Best Picnic Spots
We might be a little biassed being from New South Wales, but Sydney is a pretty great place to spend some time picnicking.
Whether it’s a picnic at the many stunning spots surrounding the harbour, or at one of the amazing parks, reserves or pristine beaches, there is a picnic spot to suit every occasion.
This guide is the most comprehensive guide in all the internet that lists all the best picnic spots in and around Sydney.
As a result, we have not filled it up with fluff and pretty pictures, but instead have listed them in area / postcode with links to find more information once you find the spots that tick your boxes.
If we have missed your favourite spot in Sydney, please feel free to drop us an email at hello@saltwaterpicnic.co and we will update the list accordingly.
