An all-abilities beachfront playground on North Steyne with a Liberty Swing, accessible carousel and the surf right across the path.
Manly's beachfront playground sits on North Steyne Reserve, a few steps from the sand. It was built for kids of all abilities, with a Liberty Swing for wheelchair users, a pod swing, an accessible carousel and a play structure with slides.
The playground is named after Jean Hay AM, a former Mayor of Manly, and was officially dedicated in November 2024. There's plenty of seating plus a picnic table, so carers can sit back while the kids burn energy.
It's open all year. Pair it with a swim at North Steyne or a walk along the beachfront. Mornings are calmer before the Corso crowds drift north.
