Bondi Beach Skatepark
Skate with a view! Bondi is worth a visit all by itself – but bring your boards and scooters too – this has to be one of the most scenic rides in the world. Located at 109 Campbell Parade on Bondi Beach – it can get very busy. But bring your swimmers and enjoy the sand and surf while you’re there too. Just up the road next to the Bondi Pavillion you can also find a fab waterfront fully fenced playground too. Here you can find a map of Bondi’s parks, including the skate park.
Monster Skatepark – Sydney Olympic Park
The Sydney Olympic Park is an incredible place for families in general – the Monster Skate Park is just one of many awesome things to do with kids there.
There are indoor and outdoor areas with sections for all ages and abilities.
The park is currently closed due to fire damage (March 2018) but keep an eye on their website for the re-opening date.
Telopea Skatepark
Located in Sturt Park near Evans Road in Parramatta this park is great for all ages. Set in a lush green park it’s good for little ones too as there is a play park nearby. You can walk there easily from Telopea train station or there’s loads of parking. As well as being home to one of Sydney’s best skate parks, it’s worth spending a day in Parramatta with the family. There are loads of lovely open and green spaces, playparks and even a water play park for hot days.
