Raumati Marine Gardens Playground
Raumati Beach 5032
Why these ages?
Toddler-focused features stand out — sandpit with digger, splash pad (managed shallow water play), swings and a hill-tunnel slide — plus flying fox and Sunday miniature railway for older kids. Mature trees give strong natural shade. Gardens back onto Raumati Beach so the ocean is a real water risk, but the dunes and gardens separate the playground from the sand. Splash pad is intentional water play, not an accidental hazard.
What's here
Raumati Marine Gardens Playground packs a miniature steam railway, a splash pad, a flying fox, a sandpit with a digger, swings, and a tunnel slide built into a hill into one block of mature gardens behind the dunes at Raumati Beach, suiting everyone from sandpit toddlers to older kids on the flying fox.
