Owen Park Playground

Right in the thick of Southport’s sporting precinct, this one’s a solid pick if your kids just need room to move. The open grass field is genuinely spacious — good for a kick of the footy or just letting little ones burn off energy without bumping into anything. Accessibility is a real plus here, which isn’t something you can say about every playground in the area. It’s pretty no-frills, but sometimes that’s exactly what you need.
