George Clayton Park

George Clayton Park is a foreshore green space in Wynnum, Brisbane, with open views across Moreton Bay and plenty of room for relaxed family or group outings. Visitors can settle in near a barbecue, use the picnic shelters, or spread out on the lawn for ball games and outdoor play. The setting combines broad open space with nearby trees, giving groups flexibility for everything from a casual picnic to a planned gathering.

The park’s main attraction for children is its fully fenced, nautical-themed playground. Locally known as ‘The Lighthouse Park’, it includes a lighthouse play tower with an internal spiral staircase, along with pirate-themed elements, a tyre swing and a flying fox. The enclosed layout makes it particularly practical for families, while the imaginative design gives the playground a clear identity beyond a standard play area.

George Clayton Park also has a bookable site for private events and pirate-themed birthday parties. The site is described as an open lawn area with nearby trees and can accommodate up to 32 people. Power is available, marquees are permitted, and the park provides toilets, taps, car parking and wheelchair access. Barbecues and the playground cannot be reserved as part of the booking, so those facilities remain shared with other park users.

For a larger day out, the neighbouring Drevesen Park is within walking distance. George Clayton Park suits families looking for an engaging playground, friends meeting for a picnic, and organisers planning a modest outdoor event. If you are booking, Council requires an online Park Booking Application with details about the event and expected attendance; vehicle access is considered case by case.
