Relaxing spot to take a break. There is a Play ground for the kids and even a zip line for all. This is a legacy sewerage works site that is undergoing rehabilitation. If you feeling generous make a contribution.

Pharazyn Playground
Pharazyn Reserve 116 Rutherford Drive, Waikanae Beach 5036
Why these ages?
Flying fox is the standout, plus basket swing, see-saw and a multi-play with slide. Reserve borders the Te Harakeke Swamp wetland and Waikanae Beach is a short walk north — water risks on two sides, and one reviewer flags rabbit holes underfoot. No infant swing, not fenced. Better for confident primary and tween kids.
Access notes
Description explicitly states the equipment sits on a bark surface, a barrier for wheelchair users reaching the flying fox and other pieces. Off street parking is available but no accessible bay or firm path is mentioned.
