The Rockpools is such an awesome free swimming area for kids! We’ve visited multiple times while on the Gold Coast, and it never disappoints. There’s lots of space for kids to run around and play in the pools and fountains. Plenty of shade is available, which is a huge plus. There’s also a lifeguard watching the pool until it turns off at 3 pm. Highly recommend going if you have younger kids—they’ll love it!

Broadwater Rockpools!⛱🌊🌞 It's perfect for all ages but more often visited by families with Babies through to Toddlers. Shallow basins are arranged throughout! Alongside stone Sea animals and layers of stone dunes. The main attraction the water fall which waters flows all the way through. Sprinkler features for a splash. Perfect for littlies and families to have some fun in the sun. Your kids will love it😊👍

Just spent the afternoon here with friends and their kids, my 3 year old nephew absolutely had a ball 😁 all for free too! The only thing we paid for was the food and drinks (pictured) from the restaurant close by which were fab. Bring your own picnic and its a great day out for minimal dollars👏

Lovely water park ideal for young kids. Lots of grassy areas with shady spots. No significant obstructions so it’s easy to keep an eye on the kids from one end of the park to the other. The water is shallow so there are no deep swimming areas. The ground is concrete throughout, so perhaps not so useful for babies that are still crawling or still falling a lot when they walk. Kiosk selling coffee & milkshakes right nearby & there’s an awesome fish shop, I was really surprised how good the food was. Look forward to coming back here, kids...
