South Inch Childrens Playground

Locals know South Inch is one of the better spots in Perth for a proper family afternoon out — the slides and swings are solid, well-kept kit that actually gets used year-round. It sits in an urban setting but doesn’t feel hemmed in, which makes a difference when you’ve got kids of different ages running in opposite directions. Benches are dotted around sensibly, so you’re not hovering awkwardly or losing sight of anyone. Parking is straightforward too, which sounds minor until you’ve wrestled a pushchair across half the city.
