One of many sea baths in Sydney – a walled-off section of ocean – this one is particularly popular with locals, and includes changing rooms, a picnic area, a kiosk and outdoor massages and yoga.

Warwick Farm Racecourse

Experience racing with a hint of a country experience. A welcoming green oasis, temptingly close to the city, Warwick Farm rolls out along the banks of the Georges River. Its leafy tracks, and authentic racing charm make for a unique race day experience. Conveniently close to the Hume Highway and 30km from the CBD, the venue has the style and ambience of its metropolitan neighbours without the crowds and congestion. Keeping it relaxed and real, your trackside experience is heightened by the high standard of racing that benchmarks Warwick Farm. Significant development is on the horizon as Australia’s leading thoroughbred auctioneer, William Inglis & Son Ltd, relocate to Warwick Farm.

We attended the caravan camping Supershow which was well organised with many exhibitions. A fantastic place to see them all in one place

Bicentennial Park

Reviewed By gds199 - Sydney, Australia

I am disappointed we didn't get to this place earlier, all this time I have been in Sydney I have been missing out! Relaxing park that caters to everyone. Plenty of open green slopes for picnics, bbqs etc, walking paths for a short stroll, interesting water features, cafe areas and play equipment for kids, good bicycle tracks for those wanting to ride at pace, plenty of tracks for a good run, educational structures, as well as a water way / creek with plenty of bird life... Must visit more often to explore this place fully.

Holroyd Gardens

Reviewed By 88tony88 - Parramatta, Australia

Came here for an evening walk after dinner. Holroyd Garden is a great place for both kids and adults. There were two playgrounds, a bicycle track for kids, a small walking track for those who love exercise. There was plenty of parking on site and it is easy accessible by car or public transport. There were buses stopped at the corner of the garden and Merrylands train station and shopping centre just a stone's throw away. There were public toilets and BBQ facilities in the park. The garden was fenced for safety purposes and it is opened from sunrise to sunset. There was an old brick factory outside the park and plenty of professional wedding photographers brought the bridal parties here for wedding photography. This is probably due to this old abandoned brick factory looks antique and a beautiful small lake next to it. There were plenty of ducks swimming in the lake and I could see some parents brought their kids to feed the ducks. Holroyd Garden is a great place for kids and adults for social gatherings or relaxing.

Blacktown Showground Precinct

Reviewed By rosemarye850 - Sydney, Australia

Walking around the park, only a few minutes from Blacktown station, you could believe you are far from a large city. The bird wildlife, the interesting facts dotted around the walk makes you aware of our part in the ecosystem. Relaxing picnic areas, bbqs, waterplay area for young kids, basketball courts, open fields for footy, a great place for a family gathering .

Blacktown International Sports Park

Reviewed By stephenoldridge - Sydney, Australia

mANY PEOPLE MAY NOT HAVE VISITED THIS SUPERB SPORTING FACILITY. It has all the amenities you need to have a great fitness workout, the running walking paths are wide enough for path sharing minimising any danger and just enough trees to grab some shade on a hot day. Each Saturday morning they have the ROOTY HILL parkrun which is top rated in terms of organisation and attracts 200 plus people (8.00am)

GWS Giants - Spotless STadium

Reviewed By davidpS1764GE - Canberra, Australia

We visit Spotless Stadium frequently for AFL games to watch the GWS Giants. The stadium is well managed, always very clean, with heaps of room to move, great seats, fantastic views of the ground from anywhere. Access to the stadium is quick and easy. The security and event staff are helpful and plentiful. There's normally a good range of food and drinks on offer, and lines to get items aren't too long. The atmosphere at the stadium during big events is electric. Twilight events make the ground even more exciting and pretty. Parking is plentiful around the grounds, with many options. Public transport (via train) is located nearby too. Heaps of food options to eat after attending the stadium are also available. I think it is one of the best stadiums and grounds around. We always love attending footy here.
