Open menuWhy it's worth checking out
Saltwater Park is a wetland reserve beside Saltwater Creek in Hope Island, with two large ponds and a quiet setting for a walk or a break beneath the trees. The park’s ponds and surrounding parklands provide a chance to explore nature, while the scenic walking areas offer an easy way to spend time outdoors.
For dog owners, the standout feature is a large fenced off-leash area with agility equipment and a designated spot where dogs can swim. Dogs need to remain on leash outside signed off-leash areas, including the dog-prohibited section north of the pond, and they are not allowed in children’s playground areas. The park also has a drinking fountain, water tap and picnic tables, adding useful facilities for a casual visit.
An on-site car park is available from Helensvale Road. Saltwater Park suits local dog owners, walkers and anyone looking for a peaceful outdoor stop on the Gold Coast. There are no toilet facilities, so it is worth planning accordingly before visiting.
