Kids head to Playland Playground along the FDR Boardwalk and Beach to climb, explore and run around on equipment built for children. It is on the South Beach waterfront by the FDR Boardwalk, so a beach stroll and playtime go together easily. A spray shower makes it a go-to summer stop when children need to splash and cool down.
