Nice place to relax, kick back and watch some clouds float by as you blaze the sweet, sweet buds.
Peaceful, clean and green. Good way to visit and had a relaxing time. Would visit again with the fam.
Always beautiful. Great for walking, swimming, biking, etc etc
The park is great fun for all ages, however the water park area wasn't turned on (Sunday 19/11/2023) - hopefully we were just unlucky and it is on for the summer
Queens Garden is a hidden gem that stole my heart with its enchanting atmosphere and lush greenery. The garden's meticulously curated landscapes transport you to a tranquil oasis in the heart of the city. I was captivated by the vibrant array of flowers, the serene pathways, and the charming seating areas that make it a perfect spot for relaxation. Highly recommended!
Beautiful and amazing garden located in George St Brisbane. A must visit place can also bring your pets cause its allowed. A relaxing place to sit on the grass or just to walk. Clean and very peaceful. Highly recommended!
Good experience. The tv screen is alot smaller than the larger screens I'm used to at the MCG and Marvel. My eyes aren't great so I couldn't see them very clearly. Otherwise it was great and this wouldn't affect people with 20/20 vision
Awesome park with historical structure the you can find in Brisbane. The garden that allowed dogs so it's very convenient to us to walk here and spend time to our dogs and just to sit on the grass. Really great place to visit!

Beautiful sunsets, nice to walk along the bay.
What a pleasant surprise. We grabbed a coffee from the local coffee shop and also shopped in the IGA and then we Took the dog for a walk and we found this fantastic path. It is very well laid out and the children area is fantastic. All fenced off and safe. There's a lovely water feature as in the video I have posted and it's definitely worth just having a stroll and looking around. It's a great place just to get out for the day and just have a little time to yourself. Very close to the water so you can see the boats. Moored and very clean toilets and eating area. One of the best places in Scarborough
Commerce district with a circle of historic buildings with beautiful stone. A commemorative seat dedicated to all govt workers. A pretty place for weddings or picnic. Not fenced for dogs but an open space for suitable free play.
We can only wonder what the people of the past would think of the high rise that clearly is gigantic compared to buildings of their era.

Great spot for the kids, at high tide it's a nice place to walk the beach, beautiful scenery
Great place for dogs and kids or even have a family barbecue with 2 fenced off dog parks
A great spot for a family picnic
Good dog park. Not huge but always well maintained. Most people very friendly and poop bags always on hand. Two fenced areas, one for small and one for large dogs
The beat place
Great park, parts were too hot to use or touch by 9am though so would only go early.
Very Aresome I love and care for kids and I care and love more then 7 billions people in the whole would Australia Brisbane for life amen in the lord Jesus Christ loves me more than the whole would Australia Brisbane for life
Beautiful venue. A very big gazebo for big groups. However, you’ve gotta get there early to secure the place. The place has a playground for kids, and toilets. More sun-wise gazebos may be needed to cater to families and groups.
In the heart of Brisbane CBD.
Easy to find.
Ironically the meeting place to commence Invasion Day Rally called 'Queens Gardens'.
Dog Friendly.
ACCESS ✅ All modes of transport for all abilities with sealed walkways, ramps and lifts from the train station.
NEURODIVERGENT ⚠️🎧 It's in the noise and hussle and bussle of city life, noisy traffic etc! In summer full blast sunshine with a few limited trees on the periphery. Wear your noise isolator/ear plugs, headphones and sunnies to limit your sensory overload.

Was a very good park toilets were clean only thing it could do with more BBQs.
Very nice new kids playground. Sand pit with a lot of things to explore for kids. Excellent.
Nice large playground very close to the beach and bathroom. Playground has swings a plastic slide and a climbing frame. Large bbq area and the absolutely free. The toilets do not have showers. My kids had a great time jumping between a playground and the beach 🏖️
Maybe next time I'll bring some fishing rods .

A date night like no other, whilst driving home after our date me and my partner stopped to take in the atmosphere, this evolved into swinging on swings and cuddling under the stars highly recommended as a great finish to a great night
My kids think this is the best playground they have been to. It does get busy though so I usually try to come earlier in the morning or mid afternoon. Good facilities... I only wish that the parking wasn't so difficult (I usually need to park in a side street where the apartment blocks are being constructed).
Good place for families with gym and BBQs with tables and toilets nearby. Dog friendly picnic area
Lovely park on a beautiful outlook. Very well looked after.
But .... Very few barbques (only two on the waterfront there) and one didn't work. No lights available in any of the little shelters and tables. (Needs yellow lights because of the insects). Other problem is the number of people sleeping in their vehicles there every night. They take up all the carpark, tables and the cooking facilities, plus not a good look and is a problem. Means you can't just sit quietly and enjoy the evening as you get overrun.

It's a great park, across from the waterfront... kids can swim and play. Has nice clean BBQ as well. Worth the visits. Get there early as the seating and BBQ huts can go quickly.

Hands down, One of the best areas in Brisbane.
Great place to take your dog. The bike track is really good too.
This park is a lush little oasis, well hidden right in the thick of the cbd, not far from the mall. It's a good spot to escape to sit and ponder, or take lunch and enjoy the fresh outdoors rather than eat inside or in the busyness of the mall.
Nice spot. No sharks!!
4 seat spinny thing realy fun but dont go on it with a full belly of food because there is a good chance you will vommit after.
Very popular place on weekends and public holidays lots of jetskis around has a children's playground and not far to boat ramp just across the road is the fish and chips shop and a caravan park
Apex park has always been a favorite for my kids as its only seconds away from the beach.
The toilet had alot of foot traffic I noticed but not from walkers and the people using the playground... Mostly people who are working in the area and passing by in their cars.

Such a great beach for water sports. When the wind is from the South West its the best option for kite surfing, wind surfing & winging.
Nice place to sit under the shade of a tree to watch the sailing boats navigate the calm water. On-street parking only. Great walking/cycle tracks linking beaches along the coastline. Mullet was jumping near the rock wall.
Great playground by the water with swings, slides and a range of other play equipment, much of which is under shade sails. Also includes picnic tables, a bbq and public toilets.
Awesome place ,Today,went first time and we loved that place.view was awesome....alot of sitting area on different places to enjoy the view of sun 🌞 and water .. beautiful area for kids,my daughter loved zip line for kids .electric grills are available for BBQ.Jet ski there ,very busy on weekends. we were lucky to find a parking straight away.
Love my bay. Friendly locals/visitors. Waterfront walk clears your mind and reminds you how lucky you are to be in this beautiful spot. Dog friendly on leash and off areas, if newbies to the area they are happy to control there fur babies until you walk on bye. Love my dbay
Park was great... a public holiday so local Cafes were closed... had to drive a fair way for fish n chips... it was worth it. A lovely picnic.
Lovely spot to have lunch or spend the day, lots of tables or shady trees to sit at. Great for families or by yourself.
What a great part of Australia to take the family for a relaxing day. Starting with a swim in the clear water, followed by a great play ground with fish and chips topping off a great morning.

This little park has a flying fox, a climbing frame and swings. Plenty of great space to kick a ball. No toilet nearby or drinking fountains, however bring your bike because there are some great bike jumps nearby (bike jumps recommend for about 5yrs+).
Beautiful sunset over the water after a bit of rain big open spaces with shaded tables,electric bbqs, water taps and seating along the foreshore ,lots of families, dog walkers and a huge play area for the kids, disabled parking with easy access, and paved paths, perfect for a picnic ..
Great place to go for a break wether it's a walk along the beach or just sitting in the park. So beautiful.
Nice but take some mozzie repellant.
Lovely area with play ground, tables and chairs, even a flying fox. Gets very busy on weekends and there's not a lot of parking.
Came here Friday 31st Jan 2020 at 9.30am
Car park was full although I believe half was filled with construction workers cars as there wasn’t enough people at the park per cars. Plenty of street parking.
Park itself is great, heaps of different things for the kids to explore and experience.
Both shaded seating areas are great however not enough shade for parents to wait in.
Love that it is fully fenced and has shade sails over the metal slides.
There is a water play area (not photographed) that is great on hot days for a quick cool down

Such an amazing spot!
My "feel at home" place to walk myself and my wonderful dog. It's clean and well kept by the council and provides enough seats in your choice of Sun or shade. Greet other happy walkers or savor your own quiet space. Enjoy all on offer at this waterside walking area.
Great park. Bbq, toilets. Plenty of free activities for all. Just opened firsts to review. Big slide too
Very nice playground with 4 free under cover gas bbqs and tables and seats. This facility is always immaculately clean thanks to our MBRC. Something for kids all ages. Very popular flying fox. Plenty of tables in the open near the water too. Toilet available.Playground un fenced. Across the road hotel, fish n chips, ice creams and bait shop. Jetty short stroll away.
A nice place for instagram.
Its a good place to take the dog. Always clean. Busy sometimes, and you have to decide if you will stay if there are alot of jet skis around, they are noisy. But generally it is a cool spot to sit under the trees.
Nice when it is dark, very boring during the day.
Lovely views peaceful and not a lot of people
I enjoy riding the path along the beach form my home, 20 K loop. Easy ride with not hill work. Deception bay foreshore is good to dogs, kids and grown ups.
Parking and tables under trees on beachfront near boat ramp
It's really great that the council has updated the park and put a large long flying fox in as the previous one was only a couple of Meters long and someone had torn it off. We would have never visited this park before as it was in such disarray and we'd just drive past. There's a BBQ area and a dog park too. Only downside is no water fountain available so bring plenty for kids and that the bark gets really hot.
Open green space, large park across the road, close to dog beach/foreshore.
Good playground for younger kids
Fantastic park for the whole family. The rope climb pyramid and flying fox are great for the bigger kids and the fort is perfect for the younger ones. Bring a ball and you will get heaps of kids joining in for a spontaneous game. Plenty of food options across the road.
An excellent little park. It has a fenced in dog play area with plenty of equiptment for dogs to play with. The park has just gotten an upgrade with new play equipment for the kids, with a new flying fox as well.
There's also a basketball court as well for the older kids, and a massive open field and a BMX track. Great little suburban park, right on a long walkway that runs along the coast and up to Rothwell.

Great place by the beach for families, with bbqs, children's playground, amenities, area to kick a ball around & a car park. Just across the road you can walk your dog along the beach, or just go for a casual stroll.
Really nice park, great place to spend the afternoon
Nice oasis of greenery with a great water view in the middle of the city sprawl. Plenty of great food for all tastes and budgets in area.
