Gates Crescent Park Playground

Outdoor nature play: sand to dig, a river to mess about in, and canyons and ruins to scramble through.

Fish, rainforest animals and one giant tank, so kids can turn the walk-through into a scavenger hunt.

Playground on wood-chip and poured rubber surfacing.

Hotel close to the aquarium and downtown, with free breakfast and an indoor pool.

Café with open play for small kids, and day passes as well as memberships.

Taproom with outdoor seating and rotating food trucks.
