Cool little Park across the road from a very busy fish and chip store. Plenty of tables to eat on and the area has a lot of shading not too far from the rock pools and there are some toilets but I wouldn't use them

Great park right on the harbour, there's a playground for children, there's picnic tables and seated areas, public toilets and a walking path. Close to the main street of shellharbour and shops if you need anything for your day out in the sun

Nice park. Fish & chips by the sea side while the kids play is always good. I did find the ever popular ebikes a disaster waiting to happen. Some Kids nearly got collected a number of times in the 2 hrs we were there, by ebikes going way too fast on the walkway.

Kids playground with a number of benches and picnic tables and plenty of grass and the beach near by. Good path for strolling and the area was clean and well maintained. Seagulls liked to come near when we were eating but we're not problematic for us sitting at a bench.

Excellent park. We love the zipline and the huge slide. There are bathrooms as well!
