JR Ford Park

Water play is definitely the highlight at J R Ford Park! My kids had so much fun splashing through the fountains and little waterfalls, and the ankle deep water makes it a fun spot to cool off with little ones.

The water play area is HUGE, with fountains, bubblers and shallow water to splash around in. There’s also a small playground with climbing equipment, swings and a slide, plus a basketball half court and loads of grass for a picnic or kicking a ball.

The playground itself doesn’t have shade overhead, so that’s worth keeping in mind on warmer days, although there are shady spots around the wider park. The closest toilets are over at Golden Beach near Fraser Park.
