What to know
All are free and open dawn to dusk. None have toilets directly on site – use nearby cafés or beach toilets.
Best for shade
From June to September, head to Parc Montaner or the old-town playgrounds. The Arenal playground has no shade and equipment gets very hot midday.
Toddler-friendly options
Most playgrounds include a dedicated toddler area with low swings and small slides. The Arenal playground is the largest and has the most variety for under-fives.
