What's here
Gulf Harbour Playground sits within Gulf Harbour Recreation Reserve on the Coast to Coast path near the marina, built around a flying fox, a multi play structure with a slide, a see saw and a solo spinner, with swings including a basket swing. A second, more colourful playground with two slides sits further along the path toward Fishermans Rock Reserve, giving families two play stops on the same walk.
