Kensington Park is a dog-friendly park in Kensington with plenty of shade. Just 450m away, Regent Hotel is a great nearby spot to relax with your dog after a walk.

Dog rules

Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times in this park. Off-leash exercise is only permitted in Randwick City Council's 17 designated leash-free areas — this is not one of them. Dogs are not permitted in playgrounds, sports courts, food preparation areas, schools, or wildlife protection areas. Please pick up after your dog — failure to do so attracts a $275 fine.

It's a small but lovely park with plenty of trees (2-3 are very large, a shady place to lay down and relax, a playground for kids, a field next to it. Drinking water fountain is between the playground and the basketball field. They finished renovating the east section! There is a small bike rack near the community building.

It's a popular spot for recreation and community activities, featuring amenities like a community center, sports fields, and a playground in Randwick area. Very suitable for families with kids to spend their free time.

Kensington Park is such a wonderful local suburban family area. From the oval to the community centre, to playground for the kids or the community exercise equipment on offer. As well there is always a few young guys around the basketball court willing to have some one on one playtime.
