A Pirate Adventure at Rockingham Foreshore

There is a new and exciting play area at Rockingham foreshore. The wooden Pirate Ship is situated at the far end of foreshore and is a very welcome addition! 

The ship is set amongst trees and has views out to the ocean, a great location to get children's imagination and play going. 


      


There are two pic-nic tables and benches and there is plenty of shade under the trees surrounding the pirate ship. 

There is so much to explore inside the main structure. It is split into two sections a lower and upper deck. You can walk all around the inside of the ship and climb up into the upper deck from both inside and outside. 

Inside it is all about balance, there are you will find a wooden balancing beam, tree stumps at different levels and a rope bridge that you can balance on to get to the other side.

        


The ship uses lots of different materials to climb up, balance on and slide down providing great sensory play. Around the outside of the ship there is a modern sprung see-saw and four spring animals continuing the nautical theme. 

                                   

There is a small car park situated next to the play area and parking all along the foreshore, with plenty of eateries, the beach, other traditional play areas and now with this fantastic Pirate addition you can really can have a great day out with the family along the foreshore. 

           

The play area is situated at the end of Bell Park, Rockingham Beach Road, Rockingham, 6168. There are shaded pic-nic tables and toilet facilities.

We went along to check it out and now understand why the locals queue up outside this ice cream shop, it’s just the best ice cream.   We couldn’t choose which flavours to try they all looked so good.

Salted caramel with swirls of real caramel, Bounty for the coconut lover, Banana and Nutella (my absolute favourite) and a scoop of Strawberry Sorbet for our little Miss and we were not disappointed!
