A gem of a playground šŸ’Ž Sand pit, climbing structure, water feature (in summer) and variety of equipment keep kids of all ages entertained. Water views, cafe and nearby walking trails make this a great little excursion and fun for adults, too. ā˜• Kiosk cafe right next door. 🚻 Yup, just nearby, behind the kiosk. šŸ›¶ Water sport enthusiast? This is one of the few spots that you can paddle to and reliably dock. 🚘 Street parking and parking meter parking. Gets busy, avoid if possible. 🚈 Just down the street from the John Street Square light rail stop.

šŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families wanting a full outdoor day combining active play, water features, harbour views, and on-site dining in one location. The water play draws kids back repeatedly in summer — bring a towel and change of clothes. Parking fills on weekends; the Light Rail connection from the CBD removes that friction entirely.

ā„¹ļø What to Know Before You Go

šŸ’”Bring towels and a change of clothes for the seasonal water play features
ā°Claim a BBQ spot early on weekends for group gatherings and birthday parties
šŸŽŸļøThe Light Rail stops at John Street Square — a car-free option from the CBD
šŸš—The kiosk cafe offers coffee and refreshments without needing to leave the park
