Why these ages?

Full swing bank (infant + high-back accessible + standard), inground carousel, spinner, climbing frame, balance eq and multi-play with slides on artificial surface. Free BBQ and picnic tables. Sits above Titahi Bay - beach and ocean are a short walk down the hill, not right at the equipment, giving reasonable buffer for supervised toddlers. Reviewers describe grassy slope for rolling and the site as 'fantastic for little kids and families'.

Access notes

Equipment

Arnold Park is one of the few Porirua playgrounds with direct beach access, sitting at the southern end of Tītahi Bay off South Beach Access Road. A full set of swings including a high back accessible swing, an inground carousel, climbing structure, and multi play structure with slides make it a solid stop before or after a swim.

    Great little a playground and grassy area near the Titahi Bay Beach. Enough playground equipment, swings and a large fun seasaw (heaps of people can stand on it at the same time!) to occupy everyone of all ages. The spinning roundabout seat wasn't working when we visited though. There is also a picnic table and free BBQ here. Facilities as a short walk down the hill, beside the beach and carpark. There is also a public bus stop nearby too.

    Beautiful scenic views of the beach, surfers and of course Tangaroa (ocean) 🌊 Go for a walk, run or even just sit and take it all in. You will feel a lot less stress and way more relaxed 😎 …

    Child playground, beach walk, great track over tge Bay heading south. But public toilets are shameful but there are showers for surfers.

    Fantastic park for little kids and families. There’s a bit of protection from the wind, play equipment, some bush on the side to explore and a gentle grassy slope to slide or roll down. Known by the local kids as Roly Poly park after this feature.

    Great playground, just short distance from the beach front. Swings for all abilities and an inclusive round-about. Take a picnic and go for a wander on the beach!

    Titahi Bay boatsheds are iconic landmarks at both ends of the bay. Arnold Park sits above the bay at the southern end with views over the bay North and to Mana Island.
