Find it on: The foreshore at Flinders Parade, Victor Harbour

If your kids are a bit old for the new GT Fisher Playground at Victor, or you need a spot where kids can play on equipment and also have a skate and shoot some hoops this is a great spot right on the foreshore.

This area is suited more to older kids. The playground equipment (called the Teenranger) includes two circular climbing frames, flying fox and lots of things to balance on and hang from. The skate park is best for kids who are confident on their wheels, although when the bowl is quiet smaller kids will enjoy it too. The skateboard.com.au review says….

“It has a small square bowl and a bigger over vert wall. There is also a small vert wall that hips onto the large wall which could keep you occupied for hours. The small quarter has a large channel and ledge which has a bank on the other side which could also be very interesting. Shits all over the old park. “

There are public toilets, lots of space to run around, kick a ball, have a picnic and also lots of tall shady trees to escape the sun in summer.
