There are many fun, well-equipped play areas on Portland which are managed and maintained by Portland Town council. Plenty to keep your little ones active and entertained.
Since the council took over the play areas in 2019, we have created a plan to upgrade them all. The first play area to be upgraded is the brand new, accessible play area at Westcliff, now open!
Help us keep your play parks fun for all.
