Lots to do for the kids with a good range of age groups actively using the playground. Nice and protected from the wind which you often find in Port Kembla as nestled beside a hill. Locals tell me the playground is still only a couple of months old which would contribute to its cleanliness factor. Shame about the limited seating and lack of undercover seating but plenty of room if wanted to bring own chairs or sun protection. Was a bit concerning when a stray ball from the soccer match going on next to the park hit a child. Seemed to reasonably hurt the child and was quite hard (as you could imagine). Nice to see something like this in Port Kembla and great with the lovely location (walking distance from both beach and swimming pool, cafe not far).


Family verdict- Its always a good sign when your toddler doesn't want to go home right?

Currently looking for another location to
Come Out and Play....
