★★★★★Featured review by Lauren Ladewig

Such a cute playground. Our little one is 10mo and there are a few things for him to do. Theres a mom and bub swing, mini tunnel, mini slide. And its mostly shaded!! There are also big things too but id say its mostly aimed at younger children. There are grassy patches with benches. Sea view, shade under trees. Ducks roaming around. Its also wheelchair accessible and has a rotating platform that is wheelchair accessible!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Reviewers love the combination of beach and playground in one spot. Parents of babies highlight the mum-and-bub swing as a standout feature. The relaxed beach atmosphere and regular duck sightings add to the appeal for young children.

Overview

Cockle Bay Playground is a beachside play area in Cockle Bay combining a well-equipped playground with direct beach access. The equipment includes a mum-and-bub swing suitable for infants, a mini zip line, and climbing structures with safety matting beneath. The beach itself extends the play space, with low tide revealing the sand flat and high tide bringing the water close to the park. Ducks frequent the area and are a draw for young children.
