[2025 Milsons Point Attraction] Travel Guide for Wendy Whiteley's Secret Garden (Updated Jul)

#summervacay This hidden gem near Lavender Bay felt like stepping into a secret. Wendy Whiteley’s garden is lush, whimsical, and overflowing with personality. I found a quiet bench surrounded by blooming flowers and ocean glimpses through the trees. The paths twist and turn, filled with sculptures, tiny surprises, and shade—so welcome in the heat. It’s a love letter to nature and creativity. I could’ve stayed for hours just breathing it all in. #summervacay

A hidden gem in the heart of Sydney 🌿✨ Spent a peaceful moment wandering through Wendy Whiteley’s Secret Garden; so beautiful, calm, and full of life. Nature, art, and serenity all tucked away in this little oasis.

This is a North Sydney view restaurant called Wendy Whiteless Secret Garden!! It's a place where you can get off the ferry and there aren't many people, but there are quite a few locals, so if you want a rare view, I recommend it. I was very satisfied.

#sydneytrip This urban secret garden is quite a lush and cool place to wander on a hot day, with plentiful greenery and tantalising views of the city. When you climb out you will find the former home of Wendy and the late Brett Whiteley and see why, after his death in 1992, she opted to clean up this piece of unused railway land neglected by Transport NSW. What I liked about it was it felt organic and less planned and intentional than other gardens. It has an eccentric series of interwoven paths running through it which defies you seeing all of it in an orderly fashion, instead inviting you to partake of it organically. It’s also littered with nooks and resting spots. The screams of children on Luna Park Sydney’s neighbouring Big Dipper added a strange, otherworldly eeriness to the experience.
