Turo Reserve: play, sports and picnics

Turo Reserve in Pretty Beach has play equipment, a large grassy area for ball games and athletics, and sports courts. There are also picnic facilities and free barbecues. The grassy area is intended for ball games and athletics; sports courts are another feature of the reserve. There are also picnic facilities and free barbecues for an outdoor break.

The play area has a nautical theme and features concrete paths and rubber soft-fall surfacing. The concrete paths connect the play area with existing park facilities. Rubber surfacing has been laid within and around the facility to promote accessibility and inclusion. The design, paths and soft-fall surfacing are features of the play area, along with the play equipment.
