Its playground has a small rock-climbing wall, a see-saw, a climbing structure with a slide, an orbiter and a double swing set. There are two picnic tables at the front entrance, open grass and tall trees overlooking the water, and wide cement paths leading to a viewing platform and a deck that continues towards Appel Park. Public toilets, including a disabled toilet, are available, and park facilities are reachable by the connecting paths. Time-limited parking is on Peninsular Drive and Watson Esplanade, with more at the Bruce Bishop Carpark across the road. The council page lists no entry fee or opening hours.
