Find the Best Splash Pads in Ottawa
Piazza Dante Park Splash Pad is the epitome of an urban park. The lovely square is completely paved and bordered by tables and benches. The splash pad is a group of eight fountains set in a star in the middle of the square. It’s a fairly simple pad with a long cycle.
There is shade and plenty of places to sit in this square, but not much else to entertain little splashers. It’s also located at the intersection of two very busy streets if containment is a concern.
Plouffe Park Splash Pad is a fun urban splashpad located in a park area behind Plant Recreation Centre. The splash pad is fairly large and features several fun structures like a rainbow arch.
The splash pad has some shade and is located near a gazebo structure. There are also two playstructures in the park. There are public washrooms available in the recreation centre.
Morrison Park Splash Pad is a simple pad featuring a tall aquadome and three small sprays. It took us a few tries to get the aquadome to turn on.
The park itself is quite nice. It’s shaded and has swings, a gazebo, a playstructure, and plenty of room to sit.
A pretty basic splash pad at Cummings Park, but the painted flower around the water jet makes a nice touch.
Kilreen Park splash pad was a wooden post kinda splashpad when we visited.
It has since been updated to a more modern splashpad. (Thanks to ChzPlz for letting us know.)
A lot of fun shapes at this park, including yellow flamingos that spray on you.
