ALEX GRIFFITH PARK

Public BBQ

This coastal park offers a surprisingly tranquil escape just moments from the beach. The star attraction is an ancient, spreading fig tree that serves as the natural heart of the space, drawing visitors to gather beneath its broad canopy. The peaceful atmosphere makes it a favourite spot for those seeking quiet contemplation, though the resident ducks and lizards provide gentle entertainment for anyone willing to slow down and observe. A covered hall with a generous porch proves its worth during sudden storms, offering reliable shelter without sacrificing the outdoor experience. The facilities include public toilets, covering the practical basics. Worth noting: there's no overnight lighting, so plan visits for daylight hours. It's the sort of unpretentious neighbourhood gem that manages to feel like a genuine oasis despite its proximity to the busier beachfront, largely thanks to that magnificent fig tree and the unhurried pace it seems to encourage.
