Seventeen Mile Rocks, QLD
The water play area at Rocks Riverside Park was rebuilt as a splash pad with shade sails and a more water-efficient system, and council resurfaced it in January 2026 to reduce slipping. It sits beside the two playgrounds, a jumping pillow and a Liberty swing in the 26-hectare riverside park. Entry is free and the park is open 6.30am to 7pm daily. Wheelchair-accessible toilets, electric barbecues and a kiosk are on site, with free parking off Counihan Road.
