Parks & Nature
Unmissable for everyone. Jog along 'The Tan' if you fancy a run and maybe a bit of football player spotting, pack a picnic and laze about in the sun all day. Grab the kids and head to the amazing kids playground ( fully fenced in) and let them run riot (in safety!). Head over to Jardin Tan for a coffee or Vietnamese inspired food or catch one of the (mostly) free concerts in the Sidney Myer Music bowl. A great chilled day out at minimal expense and a perfect spot to relax and un-wind!
