NEWPORT WATERSIDE PARK

Public BBQ

Newport Waterside Park sprawls along the coastline like a thoughtfully designed playground paradise, though whoever decided against installing toilets clearly never spent an afternoon with caffeinated toddlers. The enormous play area bristles with equipment that actually challenges kids – a refreshing departure from the bubble-wrapped boredom of most modern parks. A striking sail structure dominates the landscape, housing a proper big slide and climbing frame that'll test young adventurers. The water fountains within 50 metres provide blessed relief on scorching days, while undercover tables offer respite for sun-weary parents. Full fencing means you can actually relax without constantly scanning for escape routes – a godsend for anyone who's ever chased a determined three-year-old toward traffic. The park caters brilliantly to all ages, from tentative toddlers to fearless teens, with rope climbing structures and equipment that's pleasantly less sanitised than usual. More shade wouldn't go astray on blazing summer days, but the ocean backdrop and generous space make this a genuine find for families seeking proper outdoor adventure.
