SMITHS LAKE PARK

Public BBQ

This tree-shaded lakeside park strikes a rare balance between serenity and functionality. The mature pines and sprawling natives provide generous shade over picnic tables and benches, where visitors discover sweeping views across Smiths Lake to the ocean beyond. The playground,equipped with swings and climbing frames,occupies children while parents appreciate the well-maintained amenities, including toilets that earn praise for cleanliness and barbecues positioned in shaded areas. The adjoining Frothy Coffee Boatshed adds unexpected convenience, serving coffee and hiring out boats and catamarans for lake exploration. Blue-winged kookaburras make regular appearances, and pelicans patrol the water's edge near the boat ramp, where fishing spots prove popular. Ample parking and bins complete the practical picture. The sunset viewing transforms an already picturesque setting into something genuinely memorable. What elevates this spot beyond typical lakeside parks is its unhurried atmosphere,a quiet refuge that functions equally well as a brief stopover or an extended picnic destination.
