Pirate Park located in the sleepy shopping strip of Scarborough Village is a favourite destination for parents, toddlers and teens alike.

Set on absolute beach frontage, with plenty of car parking spaces as well as Barbecues, covered picnic tables, amenities, green space for kicking a ball and a sandy beach for building sandcastles and paddling, and amazing views of Moreton Island and the Bay.

But the most popular feature is the creative, fully fenced playground featuring traditional play equipment, train and pirate themed attractions and a cluster of stunning cottonwood trees for climbing.

If the kids still have energy after running around at the park, back through the car park and just a bit further along Scarborough Beach you will find a giant inflatable jumping pillow.

This area is fully fenced with seating for parents.

There is also an area next to the pillow with exercise equipment.

Pirate Park is very popular during school holidays and weekends.

Cafes and takeaways along Landsborough Avenue provide plenty of tasty meal options or bring your own ingredients for a Barbecue or picnic.

Make sure you put this one on your list to visit.
