COLMSLIE BEACH RESERVE

Public BBQ

This riverside reserve delivers comprehensive recreation along the Brisbane waterfront. The upgraded playground features a water-themed wonderland with hidden jets, David White's whimsical sculptures, and an artificial creek with turtles and fish. A small beach adds coastal charm. The reserve sprawls across extensive grounds, with mangrove boardwalks tracing the Brisbane River. Shaded barbecue areas create ideal gathering spots, though early arrival proves essential on weekends. A bike track, climbing frames, and swing sets cater to various ages, all within a fenced perimeter. The setting remains refreshingly uncrowded, allowing visitors to fish, cycle, or watch river traffic. Ample parking and accessible facilities make this Murarrie location particularly family-friendly, whilst evening light transforms the waterfront into something rather special.
