ROTARY PARK

Public BBQ

Rotary Park claims prime position overlooking Town Beach, offering one of those deceptively simple combinations: views, shelter, and amenities. The Rotary Club's handiwork shows in the maintained facilities - undercover picnic shelters handle weather extremes, and BBQ facilities serve families looking for a beachside feed, though the distance between hotplates and tables suggests questionable planning. The playground targets the under-five set with shadecloth overhead and decent equipment variety, though the play area becomes cramped during peak times. Parking surrounds the park generously - a refreshing change from beachfront scrambles. The location delivers what matters: ocean views during lunch, proximity to Town Beach, and rarely crowded conditions outside holiday peaks. One gap: no water taps for cleanup, an oversight for a BBQ-equipped park. For families with small children seeking a straightforward beach-adjacent stop, it does the job without complications.
