    If you visit Brisbane, the beach inside the city is definitely a fantastic experience... You will see a mini market (only in the weekend's, I think). Many restaurants, sand and blue water 💦🏖️ A good place for kids as well! Who won't lay on the beach and look directly at the tall Brisbane city?? I'm a fan! 🌴⭐

    An artificial beach in the city with lifeguard included and toilets complete with shower. One of the most popular spot in the city. Free, clean and well organized. Perfect for all ages. You can relax, have a walk or run and enjoy the view along the river.

    We had a lovely time here today. A big thanks to Daniel our guide. It was a great time of the year to go, not too hot. The breeze from the river cooled it down when we did feel some heat.

    An amazing place with convenient facilities including restrooms and a variety of restaurants. You can walk all along the riverside without feeling exhausted. The place is mesmerising especially under the beams of night building lights.

    Brisbane is a nice place to visit especially at South banks. There is art gallery, museum , man made pools, flowers etc. It is connected to the old city with 2 bridges. Recommended to visit. Beautiful scenery. Within walking distance from central station. Good to come here to have a short holiday.

    South bank is a great place to bring the family. Have a swim, have a picnic or choose a restaurant to grab a bite. Loads of space and different choices available. Free water refill stations available too. Check out the temple of walk through the gardens. Great time for the whole family to be had

  • 5/5 Alex W. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a relaxing place to visit, there’s a running trail, playground for young children, some meaningful buildings and structures and some place for BBQ, if you are not in a rush, you could spend some relaxing time over here to enjoy the breeze before getting back to the reality or your work.

    Didn't actually visit the centre but went for a long walk around South Bank. Great kids playground and lots to take in. Nice clean environment, plenty of people taking advantage of being out. River very peaceful to sit beside. Enjoyed the visit

  • 4/5 Dennis S. 1 year ago on Google
    Good location and good room, although some rooms need a little maintenance/ upgrade, but are good value. River glimpses from most rooms and city views also. Very good restaurant. Free parking is a bonus.

  • 5/5 Sam I. 2 years ago on Google
    Really great facilities. Love the shallow to deep options for the water and the awesome park with slides too!!

  • 4/5 Papataia B. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing beach to swim at with your family! Really nice and clean water, although the water was unusually warm? Fairly clean bathrooms if you go earlier in the day. Gets pretty gross in the afternoon... lovely walk in the afternoon when the lights are on

  • 5/5 Judith H. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful and safe swimming hole to enjoy on a warm day, very clean and tidy. Shallow water area for smaller kids, plenty of seating and shade plus showers and toilets. Lots of market tents and eateries. Right near the CBD and the magnificent Brisbane River. A great day out, take your own picnic and enjoy!!

  • 5/5 michael p. 3 years ago on Google
    Great manmade beach, great people about, spacious , lots of restaurants very near by, oh yeah and public toilets close by as, great place with fantastic weather..

  • 4/5 David T. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordering via QR code I think can be fantastic as it can include additional pictures and information and remove a stage of human error. The downside is that it seems to disconnect the customer and the waiter. We had forgotten drinks. Forgotten meals and no mention of kids deserts. Nice staff, but serious flaw in the delivery process.

  • 5/5 Sharon P. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful suburb for a clam evening and date night . With Zillion of options for food around end your date night with a evening walk post dinner at south bank park avenue! Enjoy ✨

  • 5/5 The Kool M. 1 year ago on Google
    A nice little walk on the riverside. From the Epicurious garden, the artificial beach and the Queensland museum, it makes for a good family time. I recommend to go during the weekend and on a sunny day (even though it can get pretty busy). Expect to spend half a day there.

  • 5/5 Jenny J. 3 years ago on Google
    Brisbane's the best iconic parkland. immaculate garden with a big wheel is my favorite area of Southbank. Highly recommend!!

  • 5/5 Kanos K. 3 years ago on Google
    Lovely relaxing place right along the river. The water is refreshing and patrolled by Life guards. Landscaping is just perfect and you can escape the city. Great atmosphere at the eating resort and plenty of amenities like lockers, showers and toilets. Oh and the sand is so sandy!

  • 5/5 Hadassah S. 3 years ago on Google
    During our 2 wk holiday in Brisbane from Cairns we spend a considerable amount of time exploring South Bank Area, some new construction work going on & unfortunately the Brisbane Channel 7 Wheel wasn't operating. Many Cafe's Restaurants open for all tastes & budget. Overall a beautiful area to explore for all ages.

  • 5/5 Chris W. 8 months ago on Google
    Such an incredible place. From the free access to resort style pools, to the herb gardens, creeks, little rain forests. Lots of restaurants. Always feels lively and safe. Very well done

  • 5/5 Oksana T. 3 years ago on Google
    The parklands are absolutely beautiful. Lovely to find some shade among the trees or to walk along the waterfront. Can get the local water transportation along there. The man made beach is a bit funny. There are people laying around in full on bikinis etc. and there was even a photo shoot one evening when I was walking by. The real beaches (ocean) which are amazing are about 45 minutes to an hour away. This beach is a huge man made beach in the parkland near the river. There is a section that is a fun water play area for younger kids. Huge climbing structure for kids. Also, cool area to hang out in giant circle hammocks. Definitely go for a stroll through if visiting Brisbane.

  • 5/5 william s. 3 years ago on Google
    Other than the wasp attack my 4 year old and partner got was a good day. Tbh you would think something like a wasp nest the size of a tennis ball would be dealt with when it is right at an entrance to the carpark.

    Kudos for keeping this tradition alive of interacting with other meat suits. If only there was some sort of device attached to me that I could call on for directions or information at any time I desired🤔nah... Better drag a probus member around with me for the day.

  • 4/5 Lesley F. 3 years ago on Google
    Very special place to be. Pools to cool off in on a hot summer day, surrounded by city views, festive activities - oh, and people, lots of people. However it is all together possible to snag yourself a patch of green grass and zone out for a couple of hours.

    South bank is the best place in Brisbane centre for relaxation or sporting, especially for kids. Gorgeous parkgrounds and a line of restaurants and icecream shops and behind them is gorgeoys man made beach with clear water. Great for kids as there are parts that are only knee deep.
