âI held a duathlon at Broad Park: A Quickie on the Beach. It's such a great public place, the kids love the playground, the beach is just over the sand dune and there is a fantastic track leading North which borders the shoreline and Bottle Lake Forest Park - great for biking and walking/running.â

âSheltered park with beach access. Two forts, swings, slides, and flying fox. More suitable for kids 4+. Plenty of parking around. There's a cafe nearby and the day we went a Mr Whippy van was parked up in the car park near the public toilets and drinking fountain.â
