Why it's worth checking out
Murlong Park sits on Murlong Crescent at Palm Beach, on the relaxed southern Gold Coast. A much-loved local park, it's a lovely green space — combining grassy lawns, picnic and barbecue areas and a popular playground with a convenient location close to the beach and the relaxed Palm Beach surrounds.
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. It's a peaceful, family-friendly spot that's become a genuine community favourite, popular for a play, a picnic or a relaxed day outdoors on the southern coast.
With a 4.7 rating from more than 450 reviews, it's a firm local favourite. The park is free and open year-round, but facilities and any events vary, so it's worth checking the surrounds before a special trip — and taking sun protection — though for a picnic, a play or some time outdoors near the beach, you can generally just turn up and enjoy Murlong Park at Palm Beach.
