This is one of the best playgrounds you will find in the northern suburbs. It's good for all ages. It's got an amazing slide and some swings, heaps of sand, shade and it is right by the beach. Also some BBQs are a bit further so what else can you ask for? Some tables and benches, water ... Love this place my kids love it too!

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families who want to combine beach time with structured play in a single location. Equipment suits toddlers through primary school age. Arrive early on weekends β€” the playground draws large crowds and swings fill quickly. No shade over equipment means sun protection is essential for summer visits.

β€œThe playground is well designed, all the equipments are good in quality, the playground is suited to most difficulty which also means the playground will be very crowded at times.”
