Playfield 5 — Kai Tak Sports Park
Check Out The Water ZonePlayfield 5 is Hong Kong's most exciting new outdoor playground, opened in August 2025 at Kai Tak Sports Park's North Garden. Spanning an impressive 4,300 square metres, the playground draws inspiration from Song Dynasty salt fields while incorporating traditional Chinese philosophy through five themed zones based on the elements — Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. The Water zone is the summer star: it features water spouts, fountains, and shallow streams kids can actually splash and wade in — a rare urban treat. Beyond the water, children can ride ziplines, bounce on trampolines, build in sandpits, and zoom down colourful slides. Shaded relaxation zones scattered throughout the playground make it comfortable even on the hottest Hong Kong days.
The playground is thoughtfully designed for inclusivity with barrier-free facilities including adaptive sandpits and accessible trampolines, so children of all abilities can join in. Early visitors have been especially enthusiastic about the innovative double-decker play structures and the combination of covered areas with interactive water elements. Check out the opening and maintenance hours here.

Sai Ying Pun Waterfront Park
Streams & Sand PitsThis brand-new 1.32-hectare park opened in early 2026, connecting Sun Yat Sen Memorial Park with the Central and Western District Promenade at Eastern Street North. Managed by the LCSD and free to enter, it's already earning a reputation as a must-visit for families on Hong Kong Island.
The park's water and sand play area is a genuine first for Victoria Harbour's waterfront — where kids can scoop, pour and splash at sensory basins right by the water's edge. Alongside the water play, the headline attraction is the "Sea of Clouds" — a large-scale inflatable bouncing zone shaped like puffy clouds where up to 20 kids can bounce at a time (sessions are 10 minutes, first-come-first-served). An observation deck delivers sweeping harbour views while parents catch their breath.
The park is designed with full inclusivity in mind, featuring an accessible roundabout with an inclusive pathway for wheelchair users, outdoor fitness stations, and creatively designed seating areas including a water pipe sitting-out area.

Sham Shui Po Park
Oasis SpringSham Shui Po Park has been completely transformed under the LCSD's "Transformation of Public Play Spaces" program, with the revamped playground reopening to much acclaim. Inspired by nature and designed with direct input from children, the 6,400-square-metre playground is divided into three zones: Sandy Bunker, Jungle Meadow, and Oasis Spring — the water zone.
The Oasis Spring area is the highlight for summer splash-seekers. It features the Spouting Whale and Octopus Fountain — interactive character fountains with water play basins and tables set at multiple heights so toddlers, older kids, and children in wheelchairs can all splash together. The fountain zone, nicknamed "Splash Paradise," also includes a "Play with Fish" element. Rounding out the zone are climbing rope nets, trampolines, and sensory walls for a full adventure circuit.

Kwun Tong Promenade
Music Fountain & Interactive Wet Play ZonesKwun Tong Promenade is one of the best water play areas for older kids who love reacting to water jets. The promenade has three interactive wet play zones equipped with sensory devices — when kids walk near the jets, they trigger water spouts of different shapes and patterns. The zones sit within a 3,740 sq m waterfront space that also has the popular music fountain, which puts on timed shows daily synced to classical music. It's totally free and very popular on weekends. There is also a children's play area on site.
Timings: Daily 8:30am–10:30pm; Music fountain shows: Mon–Fri 1:30pm, 7:30pm, 8:30pm; Sat/Sun/PH also at 10:30am and 9:30pm

Tuen Mun Park
Flower Dew Plaza (Water Lily Park)Hong Kong's first-ever barrier-free playground to incorporate water and sand was at Tuen Mun Park, and it's still a gem. The northern "Water Lily Park" section has flower-shaped splash pads and water cascade facilities kids can play in freely, plus a trampoline, balancing elements, and a musical instruments zone. The southern "Reptile Fun" section adds a sandpit, climbing towers and slides — making this a great full half-day park.
