Tickle Park Playground

Right near Coolum Beach, this one’s more about chilling out than climbing frames — and honestly, that’s not a bad thing. The open grass field gives kids room to just run around while the adults actually get to sit down and breathe for five minutes. Picnic tables and benches are dotted around, so pack a proper spread or grab something from one of the nearby spots on your way through. It’s the kind of low-key local park that works best as part of a beach day rather than a destination on its own.
