Welcome to Ocean Grove Playground, a must-visit destination in Dunedin, New Zealand. Located at Dunedin, Tomahawk Road, 347, our establishment is a beautiful park and a point of interest that offers a wide range of recreational activities for visitors of all ages.

Dunedin is renowned for its abundant reserves and parks, and Ocean Grove Playground is no exception. As part of our commitment to ensuring the sustainable management of our natural areas, we have implemented various strategies to cater to the diverse needs of our community. You can find detailed information about these strategies and initiatives available for download on this webpage.

Situated between St Kilda and Lawyers Head, our park offers breathtaking elevated views of the Pacific Ocean and suburban Dunedin. John Wilson Ocean Drive, accessible from our location, is a scenic route that is open to vehicles daily from 11.00am to 3.00pm on weekdays (excluding public holidays). Outside of these hours, the drive provides a safe and serene environment for pedestrians and cyclists to enjoy.

We are proud to be part of Dunedin's extensive network of parks and reserves, which greatly contribute to the high quality of life enjoyed by our residents. These open spaces, playgrounds, sports grounds, and community facilities play a vital role in promoting social, environmental, and economic well-being within our community.

While our focus is primarily on providing recreational spaces, we also recognize the importance of preserving areas with ecological, landscape, cultural, or heritage value. Although there is no specific policy mandating the provision of reserves for conservation purposes, we actively consider requests to acquire or manage such sites to meet the demands of our valued community members.

As a responsible institution, we work closely with the Dunedin City Council to maintain public structures on our land. This includes providing facilities such as boat ramps and jetties, granting approvals for land-based events like triathlons, and ensuring the cleanliness and safety of our boat ramps to prevent accidents.

In addition to the natural beauty of our park, our gardens are meticulously maintained and beautifully landscaped. They serve as a source of inspiration for those seeking ideas for their own landscaping projects.

Whether you're looking for a place to relax, engage in recreational activities, or simply enjoy the stunning views, Ocean Grove Playground is the perfect destination for you. Come and experience the beauty and tranquility of our park, and create lasting memories with your loved ones.
