St Kilda Skatepark — Attraction in Melbourne

This is a great park, one of, if not, the best!!!

Oh my grandson just loves this place and screams when it's time to go. He was a little shy at first and just stood back watching the big kids having fun but then, with helmet and pads on, nothing would stop him from mixing it and hitting the bowls.

It's a great skatepark with a number of transitions for all skill levels from beginners to the more experienced, and both young and old. But it can get pretty busy on nice days. Fortunately, there's a webcam installed at the Marina Reserve Skate Space so best to check the weather and then see how busy it is to decide on the best time to head on over for a skate.

There's also a small playground and free electrical BBQs, picnic tables and toilets but no nearby shops or supermarket so as well as your gear, best to take some drink and snacks with you.

It's at 29P Marine Parade, St Kilda so therefore it's close...

Hi, no pics of this one today as 90% of people on wheels in the bowl were young children(pic is of Street Art on an alley wall close by). Thumbs up to the 10% of older SK8Rs for adding a low height practice 'grind' station at entry to the bowls (using packing pallets) + inspiring/educating the next gen. BMX, scooter, roller & inline skaters all had an area to play collaboratively together today. This park is exceptionally well maintained and cleaned for sporting in safety by Port Phillip Council. Bonus: beautiful walking and bike tracks around this & a shallow water beach play...

Very nice skate park with bowls and transitions. There is a BBQ spot next to it and toilets. It is beloved skate spot in melbourne, still quite new (4yrs??) But parking is extremely expensive which is normal. $5.4/hr. There is no supermarket around the park, please take snack if you plan to skate for quite long. One more, it is very windy here. Last time when I tried BBQ, it took so long to be done due to strong wind. This park is more suitable for bowl skaters than street...
