Find the Best Splash Pads in Ottawa
A novel themed splash pad. The pad is shaped like a lily pad. The structures at the park include a froggy archway and a cattail post. This one was our daughter’s favourite of the day – it’s a nice splash pad for more hesitant splashers. The pressure is gentle and there is nothing unpredictable or that can be targeted at others.
There are many older trees at this park so there is plenty of shade. There are also swings and a playstructure at the park.
An unusual splash pad. It’s quite a large pad; painted a light blue pool colour. The pad is located in an older neighbourhood so there is plenty of shade and benches available. There is a pirate ship play structure located nearby.
A nice quiet little splash pad with a red archway and a couple of ground sprinklers. (We really like the pretty star shape spray pattern that these loops make.) There’s a picnic table under a gazebo nearby as well as a regular play structure.

Barrington Park is a smaller splash pad with a great location. The splash pad has a few novelties like an elephant spray gun and a fire hydrant. The splash pad is well shaded in certain times of the day. There is a park located in a grove of trees near the splash pad.
