Run by the YMCA, this water park is open to the public and is free. There are three water slides (one a double-tuber), a water playground and a large, shallow lagoon pool. Great for a hot day!The shop does a roaring trade in hot chips and ice creams. Picnic tables are provided so you can bring your own food.
Great afternoon was had by all in our group and lots of families enjoying the free slides, large grassed areas and a variety of seating areas and i think i saw BBQ's
We've been twice during our stay and our 6 year old son loves it here. Plenty to do - 3 huge slides which are well regulated by the life guards, big splash area with smaller slides and equipment and large pool. Really great facility with kiosk and toilets, heaps of picnic spots and BBQs. There is also a dry under shade playground and skate park. Free! A bit of a hike on the bus but get the 4,5 or 10 from darwin to Casaurina then get the 9 towards Palmerston.
How many waterparks can you get in for free? Not many, but Leanyer Water Park is free and provides toilets, kiosk, BBQs, life guards, kids play ground, kids water play ground, three slides of varying speeds. Personally I don't like the red slide as it is very dark and you can't see where you are going, but my son loves it. I have been here many times and have even had birthday parties there - you need to book spaces for these. A great place for families and kids of all ages 2 years up to 100 years!
Good for kids and thats about it. Thought it might be a good place to cool off but the water was too hot to make a difference. Slides are the best thing there really. Good for families to entertain kids etc
Seems like great little place but left with sour taste in mouth due to Lifesavers on duty closing glad the pool because they would rather gather at one end and chat than actually lifesave. I know they are volunteers but not good enough. When asked why side of pool with all the shade got closed, got a smartallick answer and was not happy.
A family place .. a place for everyone and the best part is ..all the activities are free .. enjoyed my time and also my daughter super enjoyed it ... thankx to NT Goverment
Family gathering and picnic. Superb water activities, ample parking, that caters for children and adults activities.
Great place for kids! free! run by a team of kids working for the YMCA who really have no people skills but it makes no difference, the kids run and play and get wet, that is all that matters!
great place for family to visit, nice cafe to buy lunch . Heaps of fun for all ages. Slide, pool. Everything for a Fun day. Easy access on bus.
