Newport Waterside Park

Newport Waterside Park is a super state of the art sand-based playground on the Newport waterfront, that comes with its own al fresco shipping container café, Izba Espresso.

Here’s an idyllic spot for parents and carers to kick back in the sunshine with a well-brewed cup of Fonzie Abbott coffee and tasty bite to eat whilst the children frolic in the adjacent fully fenced and shaded pirate and maritime-themed park.

A big twisted tube slide takes pride of place in the playground, which also features astroturf hills with slides, a large swinging tyre, climbing nets, mini sky walks and some ‘treasure chests’ dotted around half-buried in the sand.

Need to know – There is plenty of parking nearby.
