Laguna Park Palm Beach

The Laguna Park and Playground is packed full of FUN things to play on and explore:

Playground Features

• Fully fenced playground

• Playground circled by a pedal power monorail track

• Main play structure is a large tower with bridges and slides and stairs for the toddlers

• Smaller pirate ship with a slide and climbing nets, great for toddlers

• Two swing sets

• Lots of interactive play boards and structures scattered around the playground waiting to be discovered

• Small Flying Fox

• Rockers, See-saw, Round-About and Climbing Net

• Liberty Swing

• Large Shade Sails over playground space and lots of established trees providing shade

• Picnic shelters and picnic tables

• Pathways around the playground

Park Features

•   A large grassy area where dogs can play and exercise off leash. Dogs must be walked on leash in all other areas and are not allowed in the playground area.

• Picnic Shelters and Picnic Tables

• Barbecues

• Public Toilet Facilities

• Off street and street parking

• Pathway access throughout the parklands

• Beautiful wedding rotunda overlooking the lake

One negative we found about the layout of the park and playground is the distance of the public toilets from Sophie Purcell Playgrounds. You have to walk across the car park and down a pathway to reach the toilets, which can be difficult with toddlers in tow.

Toddler Review

We got to Laguna Park quite early on a weekend morning to beat the regular weekend traffic heading to the Southern Gold Coast. When we arrived the playground was fairly quiet so we were able to set up at a shady picnic table. Coming from the Northern Gold Coast I packed a good selection of snacks for the kids so they could eat in the car or when we got to the park. This way we could limit the “I’m hungry” tantrums and reduce any resulting stress for me!

And oh what a playground! So many FUN things to do and play on. It is easy to see why it is popular with Gold Coast families and known as one of the best playgrounds. The surrounding parkland is beautiful too, and if it is your thing, many spots for Insta worthy photos especially near the lake. 

It didn’t take long for more and more families to join in the fun on the playground. It is a popular spot and I would recommend getting there early and bringing a picnic blanket and/or camp chairs so you have a place to sit even if there are a lot of people at the playground.

There were also a number of kid’s birthday parties set-up either in the playground space or the surrounding park, it seems Laguna Park is also a popular spot for parties and picnics.

The Sophie Purcell playground at Laguna Park is fully fenced so the kid’s can explore the playground and you know they won’t get too far, especially great for Mum’s that have little runners and explorers.

We also took along our bikes and scooters and after a looong play on the playground (there is after all, so much to do!), we took a ride on the park pathway around the  stunning Laguna Lake. We made sure to pay a visit to the public toilets whilst on our ride as they are a distance for little legs from the main playground area. It is a really nice spot for a bike ride or a scenic pram walk.

With so much to do and see at Laguna Park and Playground we recommend planning a family day out and making the most of everything on offer.
