FORD PARK

Public BBQ

This park, adjacent to a picturesque surf beach, offers an expansive, open beach area with minimal shade, making it a sunny day haven. The park features a welcoming playground that is ideal for children and is centrally located, making it accessible and convenient. It includes an enclosed area that allows for relaxed supervision of children, enhancing safety while they play. While there are no pathways directly linking the car parks to the playground—which can pose a slight hazard—the overall setting is very family-friendly, with easy access to the beach for those who want to combine playtime with some beach fun. The beach itself is calm and clean, perfect for a peaceful ocean swim. Facilities like clean toilets are available for visitor convenience, and the park’s proximity to the town's center adds to its appeal.
