4.5East Shores Water Park(194 reviews) - Well designed waterfront precinct Spent 1-2 hours Playgrounds
Just to be clear, this is a waterfront precinct rather than a water park. I decided to check it out during my 1 day stay in Gladstone & started with coffee & breakfast of yummy pancakes at Familia across from the entrance to the East Shores Parklands first. There is lots going on here to see, the highlight being the HMAS Gladstone (a decommissioned Navy boat that now houses a museum, which was closed when I visited). There are also views out over the river mouth, a boardwalk, you pass Little Sea Hill Lighthouse and there are bbq areas, a water playground for kids and some great community exercise equipment for those keen, as well as a maritime museum. It was better than I expected and I spent quite a while looking around and reading up on the history of Gladstone scattered around the parklands on signage plaques.See more..

4.0Storm King Dam(45 reviews) - Lovely place for a kayak mid week Spent 2-3 hours Bodies of Water • Nature & Wildlife Areas • Playgrounds
Great place to kayak. We called in during our stay at Ballandean, had the dam to ourself. Excellent kayaking, beautiful bird life and waterway. Easy to put in any boat of vessel, calm and peaceful good spot for a picnic.See more..
It's a small council run water park for smaller children which I quite liked as it meant the older children would not dominate the smaller children in their play. But that wasn't a problem on the day we took the children. Only one other child and whilst initially the tipping bucket scared the 5 year old, his bravery and the desire to get in and slide won out and an enjoyable time was had.See more..
Being the mature guys that we are we went and had some fun at the Mount Isa Family Fun Park on a warm-ish day about a week ago. There is something for everyone here, splash pads for the kids, barbecues which we used and had great burger lunch, sensory garden and excellent toilets. We spent about 3hours here running around, playing in the green space and splash park areas, I like the rubberized pads and information about the recycled water systems. Fun time for sure even with some of the parents and “adults” around who gave us funny looks for being awesome.See more..

5.0Anzac Park(14 reviews) - Beautiful light show @ night Spent < 1 hour Parks • Gardens • Playgrounds
I was staying on Flinders St within walking distance of Anzac Park and came across the bright lights at the fountain as I was coming down Wickham St. The fountain is the centrepiece of the park. It was a magical place and I spent a while mesmerised by the light show. The colours change from red to blue to green, even rainbow. There is also a gazebo inside the park and I met a friendly possum there who seemed fine with humans. Well worth a stop off after dark.See more..

Turn immediately right at the pub as you head out of town. The park is clean with plenty of parking. There's a skate park about 50 meters from the park itself. The playground looked like fun with the area clean and complete with a path that would suit a wheelchair. Public toilets are clean with male and female toilets, and 1 toilet suitable for a person requiring support rails or wheelchair access. 2 fold down change tables are located in the large multi purpose toilet with the the change tables an ok distance from the toilet. The room is equipt with a tap and sharps disposal unit. EXTREMELY CLEAN! I was so impressed with the cleanliness.See more..
Mr Edkins was known as "The Father of Longreach" and was the Shire's first chairman, a position he held for 15 years. He was Chairman of the Jockey Club, the Amateur Race Club, the Longreach P & A Society and many other committees in the town. But for us... walking through this park was just lovely … we had been recommended to a local eateries from our motel and … it was walking distance. So we had to walk through this park... and although it was early evening... I had to have a look around. There is a BBQ area here, toilets and a memorial.... and it's located on the main road as you go through town...so it's easy to locate. It's a grand little park and we felt entirely safe walking through it at night.See more..
