1 / 2Frank kitts Play area
đ Wellington Central, Wellington
Frank Kitts Play Area on Wellington's inner-city waterfront has been fully renovated with multiple big slides, swings and interactive structures. A lit lighthouse structure glows at night. Harbour views from the swings are a genuine highlight.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for families visiting central Wellington who want a playground with genuine scenery - the harbour views from the swings are a real drawcard. The fully renovated equipment suits toddlers through to early teens. Evening visits work well for the lit lighthouse. Busy on sunny weekends - expect crowds.

âGreatly equipped playground at the sea front. Newly built and looking fabulous. Great selection of slides and swings for kids to play on in a quiet area.â

âGreat to see this area shiny and new again. Was looking quite tired before they closed it a few years ago. The waterfront is complete again now that it has returned. Fun for both children, and adults after dark on a night out, as it is beautifully lit up at night, including the inside of the lighthouse, which is way cooler than it was when I was a kid. Some things are missing due to the reduced budget but it doesn't take away from the magic of the space.â
