Oceanway Park — Attraction in Jacksonville

This park is a hidden gem, offering plenty of activities for kids and families alike. Shaded by tall trees, it’s nestled between two community centers and sits adjacent to a local swimming pool, giving you a peaceful atmosphere while still being close to other amenities. The play area features vibrant, colorful equipment designed for kids, with multiple slides and climbing options. While some parts may be more suitable for older children, my little one still had a blast on the slides and the various climbing structures.

There’s also a large net-climbing section and a spinning ride that adds more variety for active play. The park is well-maintained, with a soft surface beneath the playground to cushion falls. Another bonus is the proximity to clean restroom facilities, making it a convenient stop for families with younger children.

It’s a great spot for an afternoon of outdoor fun, with the surrounding trees providing plenty of shade to escape the Florida heat. This park truly has something for everyone, from the playground to nearby sports facilities and even the swimming pool right next door! Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a well-rounded...

There are two large pavilions with grills by the restroom area. There is a baseball field basketball and tennis court. The playground is not built yet so no one can use it at the moment. There is plenty of parking at this park. A indoor place that they used as a library but now can be rented for private events now that library has been moved. This park also has a nice size dog park and a beautiful pond view. You can fish at this location with license. I’m hoping to see some improvement in the near future. A lot of things need to...

So the pond porch/dock needs some SERIOUS work. I was skeptical to even walk on it. Nearly every time I visit with my daughter, there is a homeless person in clear sight of the kids sleeping there or just watching them. So keep your kids close. The playground however is really nice. There is shade about the entire thing. My daughter loves it. Trash is nicely taken care of and for the most part the grills are usually clean. Alot of people use this park for birthday parties. So really my only complaint is the homeless...
