The giant octopus sculpture is honestly the star of the show here — kids lose their minds over it and it makes for a pretty decent photo too. It’s one of those spots that locals keep coming back to, not just for the playground itself but because it sits right at the start of some genuinely good walking tracks. If you’re new to New Plymouth and want to get your bearings, this is a solid place to kick things off. Families tend to linger longer than they planned.
