Orakei Playground

Always stop here as a combination with the aquarium.nLong flying fox.nBig and small wheel climbers.nSmall kids area.nLarge lawn besides and beach across the road for a view of city and port.

Pretty m cool playground for the kids, plenty of parking on the road, plenty of grass area and an ok basketball half court and a beach across the road that I forgot to take a picture of. Whether you just want to take the kids out for a play of have an outdoor activity day for your friends and family this will definitely be the place for it.

Think this is also called Okahu Bay Playground. Great place for all day outings or picnics. Nice heritage structures and unique play sets.nnGood - few shade really comes in handy in hot sunny days. Big awnings on the waka inspired flying fox and slides. Small baby area good for smaller kids. Comes with toilet and picnic tables. Free parking around the reserve. Soft mat fall protection! Very close to okahu bay beach.nnBad - the variety of toys isn’t great. Not many shops to get food from.nnOverall a great place to take kids big or small and very quiet too.

Great location for the kids to run around and large play ground. The flying fox was broken though. The playground itself is nice but a bit limited as for as things to do for the kids. What's great is the public toilet. Ideal for a picnic or larger groups while the kids are occupied on the playground.

Plenty of shady trees here to sit under while the children play, the playground is clean and spacious. You can use the bbq if you feel like cooking, and the beach is conveniently located just across the road for a swim.
