This place is great and I highly recommend you go and see it. It has shallow pools playground, BBQ's and seating. So green and lush. Don't forget to take some pilchards to feed the barra. So quiet and peaceful. Love this place.
What a pleasant surprise this reserve is even though being refurbished August 23. Lots of shade, wildlife such as birds and the huge Water Monitor lizard 🦎. We saw 3 of them. A great short bush trail as well and a place to have a dip (toddlers pool) which is pretty good Monday to Friday when kids are at school. Certainly worth the visit.
A must visit when visiting Darwin. There is a lovely park, playground and picnic tables near the water spring. The Spring itself is like an outdoor aquarium with different species of fish, turtles and snakes swimming in the water. There is also an easy bushwalk that you can do as well.
Beautiful environment and conveniently located just a short drive from Darwin. Went to feed the fishes and turtles in the morning. Also attended a story session where they talked about the history and importance of the park. Great place for picnics and to bring toddlers to swim in the manmade rock pool.
They have lots of turtle and fish. It’s a nice park for family they have kids park and BBQ area. Clean and well maintained. Pool still under maintenance so can’t swim at the moment
Such a gem. This place is so well designed and if it existed in any other capital city would be absolutely packed out. Arrived at 9:30 on a Sunday and my family had the place nearly to ourselves. The rock pools are a treat for young kids and the young at heart, and the playground is well designed with cool things to climb for kids of all ages. The zip line too is a great addition. I recommend the bush walk; it's not strenuous and mostly under shade.
