Hobsonville Point Park

I agree with the other comments that it's hard to see your kids because the play equipment is separated by low shrubbery and it needs shade, especially having metal slides. There are some interesting metal sculptures and a big seed pod kids can sit in. The only thing suitable for my toddler were the seed pod, the baby swing and the small slide but I had to lift her onto it because it's accessed by a metal ladder and rope ladder, neither of which is suitable for small children. There's two baby swings, two normal swings, wobbly planks bridge, climbing frame for bigger kids, big slide accessed by a rope ladder, small slide accessed by ladders, climbing structure with a rope tunnel between two bomb-looking metal things and seating. There's a nice tree shaded pathway leading to a cafe about a 2 minute walk away, and also a nice coastal walk nearby around the new housing area suitable for bikes and scooters. There are no toilets at the playground but you could use the cafe's. There's parking in front of the playground.

The park looks cool but honestly it isn't sutiable for kids at all scorchig hot slides and the wood is rough to touch you have to be so cautious with them the park is just one big hazard. The only fun thing about this park is the little coconuts you can sit in. They seriously have to re do this park I bet they spent a ridiculous amount of money on this park

This playground was built for asthetics and not practical at all. No shade. You can’t see the kids as the flax bushes hide them. Slides are burning hot in the summer. Wood chip is awful and the whole playground is boring for kids. The little kids part is so unsuitable as the children it is aimed at cant even get to the slide across the rope bridge. Stupid design.
