New playground unveiled in Westhampton Beach
The Ria Del Bene Memorial Playground in Westhampton Beach is a delightful destination for families with young children. Located behind the village shops and restaurants on Mill Road, this playground offers a variety of attractions that cater to different age groups.
The playground's main attraction is a vibrant blue pirate ship play structure, boasting impressive sails, skeleton images, and buccaneer designs. Kids can climb aboard using a rock wall, stairs, ladders, or ropes, and slide down the open double slide suitable for young children and babies, or the cool tube slides for older kids.
For the youngest explorers, there's a shaded swing set area for babies and toddlers, complete with a giant treasure chest for imaginative play. Nearby, a small playhouse for crawlers and toddlers offers interactive elements such as an interactive clock, knobs, and an outdoor garden. An imaginative play area allows children to pretend to have treasure at a gold shop.
The playground also features interactive playground panels and a spinner with vertical climbing ropes that are popular among children. Parents can join their children on the spinner without any issues.
The playground has been renovated and is now inclusive, accommodating children with various physical, social, and cognitive abilities. Shaded areas and picnic tables are centrally located, providing a comfortable spot for families to rest and refuel.
While the pirate ship and spinner are the playground's most notable features, it is described as having "something for kids of other ages," implying that it likely includes other accessible and age-appropriate play structures for younger children. For a complete and accurate list of toddler-specific features, checking a detailed playground guide or the official Westhampton Beach parks resource might be necessary.
Visitors should bring water and sunscreen for a visit to the playground, as there are no bathrooms on-site, but public facilities are available in the town. Parking is available for free in the public lot next to the playground.
The Ria Del Bene Memorial Playground offers Instagram-worthy photo opportunities, including a pirate cutout, making it a perfect spot for family memories.
After a fun-filled day at the Ria Del Bene Memorial Playground, families can unwind and unwind at their home-and-garden, embracing a lifestyle that nurtures tranquility and togetherness. And for those young imaginative minds who have been pirates for a day, the small playhouse for crawlers and toddlers, with its interactive clock, knobs, and an outdoor garden, offers a home-and-garden ambiance within the playground, allowing them torole-play and learn about different aspects of life.
