Pacific Park
Matavai Street, Mount Maunganui 3116
Why these ages?
Universal-access design with sandpit including talking tubes and digger, high-backed accessible swing, basket swings, embankment slide, wheelchair-friendly carousel and accessible see-saw — every piece thought through for young and disabled users. Artificial safety surfacing throughout and five shade sails cover most equipment. Suburban Matavai Street with a wheels track for scooters (part of the playground design rather than a skate risk). No open water body adjacent despite the Mt Maunganui setting.
Access notes

The whole site leans toward universal access, from an accessible see saw and a wheelchair friendly carousel to a high backed accessible swing.
