Rocks Riverside Park is a great place to visit year-round. It has a spacious playground, plenty of shady spots, BBQ facilities, and lots of trees that make it perfect for a relaxing day out. Kids love the open space and activities, and it’s ideal for family gatherings or casual weekend outings. Highly recommended! Beautiful park with something for everyone! Highly recommended!

Great place for family bbqs(takes forever though) plenty of shaded areas for parties. Lots of paths for walking, running or kiddies riding their bikes.

Great park for the family outing. Large beautiful park has children playground, water play area, picnic tables and BBQ, public toilet. It's lovely place to spend time for walking, picnic, and relaxing!
Visit in early morning during summer to avoid heat. In winter, sunny days stay mild—water play can be cooler, so bring towels and a jumper for your baby.
