Best for a free afternoon in Westport with mixed ages. Victoria Square packs a playground, a skatepark and a bike track beside the rugby fields, with gardens, clean public toilets, seating and picnic space, and it hosts the town's community events.

๐Ÿ† Family Action Verdict

The easy answer for a family stop in Westport: bring bikes, scooters and a picnic and let the kids move between the playground, the bike track and the skatepark while you sit in the gardens. On event days it fills with the whole town, which is either the charm or the reason to come back another day.

โ„น๏ธ What to Know Before You Go

โ€œI mowed the lawn at Anglican Church at 67 Queen Street. The vicar Matt is a great bloke and his wife Jacque is very welcoming. Come along on Sunday 8am with vacs pass or Sunday 10am if you want the best music.โ€

Overview

Victoria Square is Westport's civic park and sports ground. For families the draw is the cluster of a playground, a skatepark and a bike track in one place, so a toddler, a scooter kid and a teenager on a skateboard can all be busy within sight of the same bench. Around them are the rugby fields and grandstand that make it the home of Buller Rugby, formal gardens, war memorials, seating and public toilets that reviewers say are clean. Anzac Day, the Buller Marathon and the A&P show happen here.
