What a beautiful beach! With the surf club on the doorstep and kids' play area not too far away, a walk on the beach was the perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Life savers were on duty and the water was a beautiful blue, with gentle waves. Loved it!

The City of Gold Coast and Disability Services Queensland joined forces to create the Gold Coast's first 'All Abilities Playground' at Kurrawa Pratten Park, Broadbeach. The park has proven extremely popular, providing an innovative, unique and entertaining play space for kids of all ages and abilities! The All Abilities Playground is one of our newest play spaces, featuring an accessible submarine, a mermaid, diver and fish, simulating the ocean environment. The kids will have a ball in this sea-themed playground, designed to cater to all ages and ability levels.

This well maintained park is well used as it is beautifully maintained and spacious. So many families use it for picnics, walks, ball games and it also has a great playground for young to mid age lids. We took the grandkids with their skipping ropes and frisbees and they had a fabulous time. The adjoining Kurrawa Surf Club is available for snacks and coffee.

I have been here about 11 times over the years mostly passing through on my bicycle, an interesting park, it’s multi purpose firstly a war memorial so some great history it view, secondly it’s home to the largest bat colony’s on the Gold Coast and lastly it’s a beautiful manicured garden with a huge variety of flowers also there is about 6 Barbecue s and riverside seating as well as a lush forest walk all in one small area... right in the city, so cool. Plenty of parking or you can just ride your bike or better walk so you miss nothing , bring your camera.
