Why these ages?

Pirate-themed foreshore playground with pirate ship tube slide, eagle's nest, rotonet, infant swings. Wide age appeal. Manukau Harbour beach directly accessible from reserve = water risk, no fence. Water is muddy tidal but still a runner hazard. Distance-only mitigation. Toddler zone has infant swings and spring toy but perimeter open. Great for older kids with pirate theme + climbing.

Access notes

The beach and grassed open space provide plenty of room for the kids to run around. Toilets, a barbecue, picnic tables, and seating make it the perfect spot to relax or have a picnic. Flat walkways run through the park along the coast and connect to the playground and accessible toilets.

Good area for kids playing but could have more playing instruments like others nearby playgrounds.

Amazing playground for little children. There is a massive slide, 2 pirate ships, 4 swings (2 regular swings and 2 baby swings), and also a net sculpture for people to climb on. There is also some seating close to the playground, and also a picnic table so you can have a family dinner there.

A lovely children playground with the of equipments shaped like ship. Have tube slide, spider web, planks, and a lot more. Located next to the beach, though it's recommended that you swim with your child as the water around the beach is not that clean. Also have grassed area as well as seats around the playground. On weekends and school holiday, you can find Mr Whippy around the car park.

Its a beautiful park for the kids and an ausome slide too. Its very quiet and has a barbecue too, its a mini beach so kids can play in the sand. Plenty of parking and great for a bush walk too.

Beautiful playground and park area. Nice little beach for sand play. Not great for swimming proper as it's mostly mud flats. Tube slide, good equipment, nice grassy area, BBQ.

People need to be mindful that the small carpark can't have double or triple parking. There is plenty of parking further up buy not too far.
