Green Point Urban Park

Why it’s worth it

The Biodiversity Showcase Garden holds about 25,000 indigenous plants from around 300 species, and there is an outdoor labyrinth. The Education Garden has a water feature, splash pad, sensory garden and climbing structures, and there are separate play parks for younger and older children. Picnic areas and public toilets make it practical for a long afternoon.
