Why it's worth checking out
Set beside the Nerang River in Southport, Harry Bond Park is a straightforward Gold Coast park for a walk, a picnic or some relaxed time outdoors. Its riverside setting gives the space a peaceful feel, while picnic tables, a drinking fountain and a playground make it practical for a range of visits.
The park also includes a designated dog exercise area, with off-leash exercise permitted only from 5am to 7am and 5pm to 7pm, and only when dogs are under effective control. Dogs must otherwise remain on leash and are not allowed in the children’s playground area. With facilities for dogs, kids and casual outdoor activities, Harry Bond Park suits families, dog owners, walkers and anyone looking for a simple place to unwind near the river.
