Went here for the Sunday farmers market, very easy to walk to from caravan park with a sealed path all the way. Dog friendly, good fresh local produce, reasonable price for type of market. This Park is right on river and next to bridge. Walking path goes under bridge. A lot of people parked on opposite park area and walked over rather than parking over near market in park

Picturesque place on the river/inlet. Toilets available, 3-4 stalls. Small outdoor gym and play equipment. A lovely green space.

Water views, clean BBQs that are Council cleaned every morning and a workout area. A great family area as long as you keep the kids on the park side of the path.
