Laguna Park

Laguna Park sits on Laguna Avenue at Palm Beach, on the relaxed southern Gold Coast near the beach. A much-loved local park, it's a lovely green space — combining grassy lawns, picnic and barbecue areas and a popular playground with a lovely setting near the coast, the kind of relaxed, family-friendly spot that's become a genuine community favourite.

The appeal is that combination of open green space and great family amenity: room to walk, picnic and relax, a playground for the kids and easy access to the nearby beach and the relaxed Palm Beach surrounds. It's a peaceful, family-friendly spot, popular for a play, a picnic, a barbecue or a relaxed day outdoors on the southern coast.

With a 4.6 rating from more than 530 reviews, it's clearly a firm local favourite. The park is free and open, but facilities and any events vary, so it's worth taking sun protection on a warm day and checking the surrounds before a special trip — though for a picnic, a play or some time outdoors near the beach, you can generally just turn up and enjoy Laguna Park at Palm Beach.
