Rowland Reserve

A great place to go for dogs and their owners! Off-leash, grassy, waves lapping the shoreline-what more could a dog pant for?

Pleasant beach for dogs to play off-leash, friendly dogs of all sizes.

A perfect place to take the kids for a day. Plenty of shade and the waters are shallow enough to be assured that nothing can go wrong. Would have rated higher, but the atrocious hourly parking fees feel like the council wants to keep visitors away.

Great place if you are a dog owner :-) next to the beach with a lovely coffee shop on weekend and the water calm. Love it here.

A fantastic place to take your dog. So much room and really friendly owners.

Beautiful dog park. Lots of space and kept very tidy. Bonus beach for a doggy swim

very good place for dog. and see so many dogs very happy

Very nice dogs free leash park. Very friendly atmosphere.

Enjoy bayviews at the Rowland Reserve with easy access via Mona Vale. Walk along the Pittwater Road up to the Church Point wharf while you can pop in few cafes for sandwiches and coffee. Watch cyclists, dowgy lovers, paddlers of a boat or canoe. There are 8 hours free parking spaces next to the tennis court and 1 hour free parking near dog excercise areas, excluding trailers. Boat trailers users pay for parking ticket. If you have no boat or canoe, you can just enjoy walking around park and watch tranquil water views. You can also see the Newport wharf across the pittwater from the Rowland Reserve wharf. It's quite different aspects from the most of beachfronts where you can see lots of surf riders and crowd.

A wonderful location, with a dog friendly beach where dogs can run off leash on the grassy area and on the beach. Best part is lots of open space, and easy parking.It can get very hot in summer as its very exposed.To cool off, just jump in the water with your pooch (or without your pet, ours loves to join me on the water!)
