Wynnum With Kids

Council gives no age ranges for the Aqua Park's water play or the wading pool, so this page sorts places by what each has. The Aqua Park and Wading Pool Park share an address, 137 Wynnum Esplanade, so one stop covers both. The mangrove boardwalk is a separate walk.

Wynnum Aqua Park

The Aqua Park is open 24 hours, at 137 Wynnum Esplanade. Council's page lists no fee. There's a car park on site and parking along the esplanade.

Council lists barbecues, public toilets, seating, a hand pump, water troughs, a tipping bucket, direction jets, ground sprays, water-spouting whales, a toddler play area, rubber matting and a playground. The water-play area isn't under cover.

Council's advice: “Always keep an eye on your children.” It suggests supervising from a picnic shelter, a seating area or under a tree close by. Council's page has no accessibility information.

Wading pool and playground

The pool and the playground are both in Wynnum Wading Pool Park. For the pool's size, tides, facilities and history, see the Wynnum Wading Pool page, which also covers supervision. Council says the playground recently had a facelift and calls the additions suitable for children of all ages.

Mangrove boardwalk

Elanora Park is a separate stop. Council's pages don't give the boardwalk's hours, fee or parking, and don't say whether the pram and scooter note covers it. See the Wynnum Mangrove Boardwalk page before you go.
