Parks and playgrounds with restrooms in Big Island
Anuenue Playground - Waimea Park
A big fort-style playground with lots to climb, so kids can play castles while you sit.
Kamakana Playground - Harold H. Higashihara Park
Wooden climbing structures and slides with plenty of room around them, so kids can run off a long drive.
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park - Welcome Center and Open Overlooks
Rangers and overlooks onto volcanic landscapes, so kids can see what the island is made of. Check which roads are open first.
Open until 4:45 pm
Kahaluʻu Beach Park
A shallow bay behind an old lava-rock breakwater, where green sea turtles come up onto the beach. Water shoes help on the rocks.
Spencer Park at ʻŌhaiʻula Beach
An offshore reef keeps the waves small and the bottom slopes in gently, with big shade trees along the sand.
