Frank Kitts Park — Attraction in North Island

The public is enjoying and making the most of Frank Kitts Park both day and night. From free yoga and fitness classes, guitar and other instrumental busking and singing performances and outdoor concerts, find also the Astrological Society out and about in this good weather with their telescopes to share a bout of star and moon-gazing with interested passersby.

FKP is also popular with strollers, joggers, bikers, etc. and friends who meetup over coffee or an ice-cream from the nearby kiosks. Find yet more amusement along this stretch of the waterfront especially during the warmer months. Kayaks, yachts, paddle boards and dogs are all fixtures of the picturesque landscape as are shutterbugs and interesting, globe-trotting tourists who will often share a yarn or two with you if given half a chance.

PS: All the best to Pierre, our fitness trainer from France whose 2 photos you can see at Frank Kitts Park, while offering free WOWs (Wellington Open Workouts) when he was here but who has just left for Japan. Merci beaucoup...

The playground with it's iconic lighthouse slide is rather unique and the views from the top of the slide are worth checking out even for the older kids. The park definitely adds to Wellington's waterfront experience and is worth...
