Royal Botanic Gardens -

The Botanic Gardens are simply stunning and a joy to explore. Kids will love the Ornamental Lake where you can take them on a punt cruise around the bays and islands. Highlights include the stunning Guilfoyle’s Volcano and the Tropical Glasshouse. However, what kids will dig most will be the Ian Potter Foundation’s Children’s Garden. The water features in particular are great in summer. Entry is free!
