WHARFS LANDING PARK

Public BBQ

Wharfs Landing Park occupies a peaceful waterfront pocket in Docklands, offering spectacular city and Yarra River views that make it a hidden gem for sunrise photography enthusiasts seeking reflections of apartment towers and the Bolte Bridge. The park's centrepiece is a distinctive nautical-themed rope playground that caters to older children,the climbing equipment's challenging height proves tricky even for adults, rendering it largely unsuitable for little ones. The elevated, prow-shaped grassy rooftop provides an unexpected vantage point for taking in the Melbourne skyline while strolling or cycling the boulevard. BBQ facilities, drinking fountains, seating, and conveniently located rubbish bins service visitors, though the playground area lacks shade. This remarkably quiet spot remains unknown to many locals, offering a tranquil waterfront escape with views of multimillion-dollar townhouses lining the water's edge.
