Stuart Park Playground

The playground update took this spot from great to the BEST. It’s accessible, it’s vibrant and it’s right near some stellar views. Can’t wait to spend more summer days here.

While Stuart Park has always been a great place to let the kids run wild, the recent upgrade to the playing areas have made it the best park in Wollongong.

With new sensory areas and plants, it has opened up a whole new area for kids. My son instantly loved the sensory art installation and plants he could touch and smell.

The only thing that could help improve the park now is more seating, specifically around the flying fox area as that gets incredibly crowded. A new toilet block closer to the bbq area would also help.

Wollongong city council really has put effort into the park and it shows.

For anyone with children or disabled children this is a really beautiful tranquil place for all .
My neighbour took me there a couple of months ago and I was shocked plenty of activities lots of shade and open to the lovely sun and fresh air a must especially for parents with children full of beans this place will wear them out as an adult I couldn't help but get in the flying fox a number of times.

We came during the week, loads of parking, fun interactive playground. The kids loved it and right next to the beach! Will definitely be back!

Such a beautiful park, it has great playgrounds for kids and adults. Well kept grounds and facilities, great fun for all ages and families.

Needs a skateboard park and a pump track for the older kids. Playgrounds are great as they cater for small children and the disabled. Parking is difficult on weekends and public holidays.

There's a lot to love about this park, but the children in my life absolutely rave about the flying fox in the adventure playground. They also spend many happy hours at the adjacent beach, building sandcastles and playing in the shallows where the ocean meets the lagoon. There are public toilets nearby, and shade is plentiful. There are also some great paths (complete with traffic signs and line markings) for kids with bikes. Perfect spot for a picnic or BBQ.
