View on Chowder Bay beach and military ship in Sydney Harbour National Park, Australia.

A beautiful place to enjoy scenic harbor beach swims with views of Fort Denison, Chowder Bay is also a convenient rest point on the coastal walk between Taronga Zoo and Balmoral. There's a shark net, playground, picnic tables and plenty of grass, as well as good eating options in the former army barracks.
