Find it at: Basham Parade, Port Elliot
What is lacks in equipment it more than makes up for with oceanside scenery! Commodore Reserve is located at one end of Horseshoe Bay. It’s a long grassy spot that’s perfect for a picnic, ball games and it’s long narrow shape is IDEAL for a game of beach cricket.
There’s also a giant nest swing that kids will love.
Lots of parking available and BBQ and toilets on site. It’s a great spot to spend an arvo
Oh and don’t forget the delicious Pt Elliot Bakery is just up the road.

Find it at: Military Road, Henley Beach A lovely little fenced off local toddler playground nestled in the beach side suburb of Henley Beach. This playground has nice modern equipment including lots of climbing steps , a tunnel for the kids to crawl through , a groovy little slippery dip, some bouncy animal pieces and a swing set. Our favourites would be the little merry go round along with the trampoline in the ground ( its pretty cool). Don't worry it has lots of squishy protection around the outside just in case the kids bounce off . The park is surrounded by a lovely grass area and has lots of trees for the kids to play amongst. Centred in the middle of the reserve is a picnic table with shelter but unfortunately this park doesn't have a BBQ,toilets or shade. In need of food or coffee? There are lots of options in Henley Beach with either a stop at Henley Sq beforehand or Yankee Café or Dulwich Bakery are both on Henley Beach Road and not far from the reserve.

Find it at: Kooralla Grove, Kidman Park What a great little park this one is. With a fantastic range of play equipment, including some reasonably challenging climbing equipment to a playground with an enclosed twirly slide, this has something for most ages. It even has a heap of outdoor gym equipment but lets be honest, apart from sitting on the ski swingy one, nobody has ever used any of it....or is that just us? No toilets is the only let down here, but it has a BBQ, seating, a mix of toddler and traditional swings, several slides and is a really beautiful spot. There is no fencing but the river is about 100m away and it is in a nice quiet back street so you shouldn't have many issues.
