★★★★★Featured review by Tamz Taumalolo

Cute wooden park, with a seaside theme. Unfenced and directly beside a large beach. It has two swing sets and a large basket style swing. Some great rope climbing (with a cool Crow's Nest to climb up to), a little slide and baby/toddler playground equipment nearby too (it's a bit older but still functional). A few wooden seats nearby and plenty of on street free parking. There are public toilets nearby (one has a baby change table in it, and the single toilet has a handy toddler seat to keep them safe while parents/caregivers use the facilities).

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Wooden structures and immediate beach access suit families from babies through to primary-school children. The crow's nest and basket swing draw older kids, the toddler section works for littler ones, and the beach is close for paddling on calm Wellington days. Nearby toilets with baby change make it practical for families with infants.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Fine gravel from the playground surface will end up in shoes, socks and pockets — worth knowing before a long drive home
The playground is unfenced and sits directly beside the beach; keep an eye on younger children near the water
🎟️Public toilets are close by — one includes a baby change table, and the single toilet has a toddler seat fitted
🚗Free on-street parking is available on Monro Street

Nice open park by the beach. Playground has very small gravel like the beach, and will follow you home lol. Swings didn’t squeak.

Beautiful on a good Wellington day. Great walks in either direction.

Overview

The wooden playground includes two swing sets, a basket swing, rope climbing with a crow's nest, a small slide, and a separate baby and toddler area. Fine gravel surfacing tends to come home in shoes and clothes. Nearby public toilets have a baby change table in one cubicle and a toddler seat in the single-toilet block. Free on-street parking on Monro Street. Unfenced and directly beside the beach.
