Visited the dog park with my dog Mabel. Theres plenty of parking that's shared with the boat ramp and jetty, that may be busier on the weekend. It's a decent size, room for zoomies and has some tree cover. There's a few bits of equipment for activities, A-frame ramp, weaving posts, 3 little hurdles, a short tunnel etc. There's a few benches for the Humans too. I went as it got dark and unfortunately there's lighting. The nearby sports complex was operating and it's large stadium lights weren't directly lighting the dog park but were adding a bit of ambient light which i think helped a bit. 2 other dog owners came and left while i was there, so it's not busy after dark, but possibly not completely abandoned for long either.

And how good would a milkshake be!! It is somewhat unclear as to which facilitates people are able to use, what is booked and what is free for all. Overall this is a really nice place and perfect for anyone, clean and friendly, I would definately...
Read moreThis place is the bomb if your wanting to take your dog for a walk or swim. I have a frenchie and he goes crazy for the beach. It was a blast he ran along the beach and through the water on high tide it’s perfect whereas low tide there’s lots of sticks and rocks and rubbish that washes up. I made sure to pop what rubbish I did find in the bin. There’s a dog park, childrens playground with a wheelchair swing. There’s a large field separate from everything that’s perfect for picnics cricket, fetch and it’s like the size of a football field with trees around the edges of the field. There’s views of lovely Hamilton and...
