Harbour View Park in Hillarys is a lovely local Playground that’s especially suited to toddlers and young children, with the bonus of exercise facilities for adults and free community tennis courts alongside. Tucked within the quiet suburban streets, it’s an easy park to visit for a quick play, a longer hang-out with friends, or a scooter ride around the surrounding paths.
The main play area is boat-themed, which is always a winner with little ones who love to pretend they’re the captain at sea.
The compact climbing frame includes small ladders that are easy for younger children to manage, a fun rock climbing wall, and an enclosed slide that feels adventurous but still safe for hesitant riders.
There’s also a steering wheel and a speaking tube, perfect for imaginative play and sibling chatter across the structure.
Underfoot, the Playground is non-sand based, with rubber softfall surfacing. This makes it a great choice if your toddler is prone to eating sand or you simply prefer a cleaner play experience. It’s also more accessible for prams and for kids who might be unsteady on their feet, helping to soften any little tumbles.
Alongside the main structure you’ll find two cute white rocking horses and a swing set with one toddler bucket swing and one standard swing. This simple mix of equipment keeps the focus on climbing, swinging and make-believe games rather than overwhelming younger kids with too many options.
The play area is partially fenced, which offers some boundary and peace of mind, but it’s important to note that it is not fully enclosed; determined toddlers could access nearby roads and dogs can move freely through the area, so active supervision is still essential.
One of the standout features of Harbour View Park is the inclusion of adult exercise equipment within the same general area. If your child is confident enough to play nearby, you can squeeze in a quick workout while keeping an eye on them, making it a convenient spot for parents trying to balance fitness with family time.
Right next to the fenced Playground zone are two full-size tennis courts that are free for the community to use. Bring along racquets and balls for older kids or enjoy a casual family hit before or after Playground time. Outside the play space there’s also a generous grassed area that’s perfect for ball games, picnics, or just running around to burn off extra energy. Footpaths around the park make it a good option for scooters and bikes too.
Shade sails have been installed over the main Playground equipment, providing welcome protection from the sun during warmer months. There is bench seating for carers to relax on while they supervise the kids, and the park has access to public toilets, which is always a big plus when you’re out with young children. Street parking is usually straightforward, with adequate space along Azzuro Crescent. Harbour View Park is only about a five-minute drive from Hillarys Boat Harbour, so it can easily be combined with a coffee stop or a coastal walk nearby.
Overall, Harbour View Park Hillarys is a handy, toddler-friendly local Playground with a good mix of play equipment, shade, exercise options for adults, and bonus tennis courts. The non-sand softfall and proximity to amenities make it especially appealing for families with younger children, as long as you’re aware that the play space is only partially fenced and keep a close watch on little runners.

This is a great park, but it is not fenced. Toddlers can run onto roads, and dogs have unlimited access to the area.
