Moolooaba

Right in the thick of Mooloolaba’s busy esplanade strip, this little playground sits close enough to the beach that you can hear the waves while the kids burn off energy. It’s nothing fancy, but that’s kind of the point — families tend to use it as a mid-day pit stop between a swim and grabbing food from one of the cafes nearby. The location does most of the heavy lifting honestly, with the beach just steps away and decent dining options all around. Worth knowing it’s not wheelchair accessible, so keep that in mind before making the trip.
