Find it at: Gullly Road, Seacliff Park

The Gully Road North Reserve Playground at Seacliff Park is so good! It’s a terrific location, with a beautiful winding creek bed of Gilbertson Gully to follow on one side, and the O’Halloran Hill Recreation Park on the other! There is still some work to be done on the grass next to the playground, but the basketball ring and playground are able to be used.

What are it’s features?

  • Large climbing frame
  • Toilets
  • Bbq area
  • Basket swing
  • Seating
  • Shade from trees, but not directly over climbing frame area
  • Basketball court area
  • Water play area
  • Sand pit area- with a digger you guys!!
  • Nature gully walk (head north down Gilbertson Gully and across the road, then the path takes you along the creek bed. It’s so fun!)
  • You can ride south up the hill towards O’Halloran Hill Recreation Park where there are loads of bike tracks or walking trails
  • Off-street parking available

What doesn’t it have?

The playground is not fenced and it’s not that close to coffee, but the playground has quite a bit of space around it and the roads either side are not terrible busy

  • Flinders Park Playground

    Find it at: Hartley Road Flinders Park A nice little playground with enough equipment choice to keep the kids busy for a few minutes at least! It could do with a few extra features as it has no fence, no shade (apart from some nearby trees), no water fountains, no seating and no BBQ. The toilet is only at the nearby footy club, so if that is closed then you are out of luck too. But it does have a cool little wooden boat, a huge nest swing and a heap of regular swings (including one for the toddlers). A good spot for the locals and with the nearby oval, plenty of space for everyone to run around (sadly due to the lack of seating parents will also have to run around as well. Soz.) Hartley Road is fairly busy so keep a watchful eye on the kids at this one.

  • Blackwood Park Treetops Playground

    Find it at: Cnr of Blackwood Park Blvd and Champion Way, Craigburn Farm Based around the existing trees in the Blackwood Park Estate this play space is an adventure haven. As soon as you arrive you see this amazing tall red climbing structure nestled among the trees. As we got closer I was nervous for the kids already up the top but they we just LOVING it. I watched the kids climb the rope stair case or strategically weave in and out of the ropes to find the openings to gain access to the rope bridge that leads to an awesome twister tube slide. My parent friend who joined me at the park with his son couldn't resist the temptation and had to see what all the fuss was about so took the plunge with the kids. View was awesome the slide was dark, fast and FUN. Lets face it we all have the inner child still within. I was happy to keep an eye on the kids and keep my feet firmly on the ground! Whilst the rope climb is the centre piece of this awesome new play space there are lots of other pieces of equipment for the…

    Find it at: Burnham Reserve, Kingston Park The Kingston Park Coastal Reserve is such a beautiful location. With the Brighton Beachfront Holiday Park and Seacliff Surf Club on one side and the Marino Coastal Trail walking trail on the other, the surrounds are just beautiful. Kids will love exploring all around the park, and although the playground equipment itself is relatively small, there are tennis courts and plenty of large play spaces to investigate and enjoy. This really is the perfect place for a birthday party, Easter Egg event or Christmas get-together. In front of the playground is the southern end of Seacliff beach and this is THE BEST place for kids to search rock pools, discover sea creatures and jump from rock to rock- basically they will have an absolute ball! Facilities: BBQ and eating area (under shelter) Playground Huge grassed areas to play and explore 2 public-use tennis courts Toilets (no baby change facility in toilets) Native Spring Close to the beach Things to note: The playground is not under shade cover and it isn’t fenced. However, the car park and road is quite far from the playground. The Marino Rocks Cafe has absolutely to die for fish…
