Tompkins Park Playground

Locals know this one as a low-key gem in Alfred Cove — nothing flashy, just a solid patch of open grass that’s genuinely good for a kick around or letting the kids burn off some energy. The quiet neighborhood vibe means you’re not fighting for space with half of Perth on a Saturday morning. It’s the kind of spot where you can actually hear yourself think. Suits all ages, honestly — whether you’re after a casual hit of footy or just somewhere to sit and watch the world go by.
