Broadwater Parklands Peninsula Playground Parking

Locals know this stretch of Broadwater Parklands is one of the better spots on the Gold Coast for a relaxed family outing — the waterfront views alone make it worth the trip. Parking is genuinely easy here, which sounds like a small thing until you’ve circled Cavill Avenue three times with a car full of kids. There’s a good mix of shaded seating and picnic tables, open grass for running around, and paved paths that work well for prams, scooters, or anyone who just wants a decent walk along the water. It’s pretty well suited to all ages, nothing too fancy, but that’s kind of the point.
