There is a nice Freedom campsite oposite to this park, good toilets, one minute walk to the beach, very quiet. We stayed one night it was a pleasant stay.
Good for freedom parking with camper van, easy walk to the toilets, which are not the most looked after (no toilet paper or soap) but atleast there Is a toilet. Lovely little paths that go onto the beautiful beach for a morning view and wakeup stretch. It seems to be quite safe with no randoms lurking around at night, just happy campers. Also cute little benches and tables all around for picnics. You don't hear many cars driving by until the morning, so it's a peaceful sleep.
Playground next to Thomson Skate Park. Has a big fort with slides and monkey bars, flying fox, and another smaller playground with a rocking horse next to it. Suitable for big and little kids. Public toilets and basketball court available, plenty of room to run around.
Spent 4 hrs with contented and entertained grandchildren on a recent sunny day. Scooters, adventure playground, tree climbing, picnicing, and lots imagination play. Perfect, simple, outside and ever so human!!!!!
Cool park with an awesome mini ramp perfect for beginner skateboarders and a state of the art big bowl for experienced riders, awesome playground with loads of space for picnics and running children. The flying fox is always a highlight of visiting this park. There are shops located next to the park and there is a local beach with surf life saving across the road. Great place to walk the dogs and de-energize the kids.
Great freedom camping on the Marine Parade close to the park. There is actually 2 sets of 2 toilets in the park (the second set is about 2 min walk further north). Allowed to park for 4 nights.
