Gigantic slides, smurf village, musical huts, skate park - could this be the BEST park in the South?

Gigantic slides, smurf village, skate park - what more can you want?

Oh, ok then, throw in a musical hut, sand pit, train, swings of all shapes and sizes, exercise equipment, monkey bars, BBQ facilities, dog park and a huge oval - and you have arguably the BEST park in the South!

If you haven't been before, it is truly worth the visit, your kids will be little balls of energy and bounce around all of the fabulous equipment.
There are shaded picnic areas making it the perfect party/picnic park. And if you are lucky, frequent visitor - Mr Whippy will be on hand to offer some refreshments!

Mamma's special mention: if you find that the kids still want to play, head over to the Skate Park or if the weather takes a turn, why not head to The Silly Seahorse playcentre, just around the corner?

black rock foreshore playground

What could be more perfect than a pirate-themed park overlooking one of the most beautiful bays in Victoria? Not much!

What could be more perfect than a pirate-themed park overlooking one of the most beautiful bays in Victoria? Not much!
This playground has all the ingredients necessary to ensure your child has a perfect play. There are your usuals; swings, slides, see-saws - plus an amazingly high (terrifyingly for this mamma) climbing pyramid.
The other climbing structure is a pirate fun ship. With slides as the descent and nets to climb up, a wooden steering wheel, and plenty of exploring space underneath for the toddlers.
Right in the heart of the beautiful black rock village, this park is definitely one to see!
