With it's avenues of mature trees and grass recreation areas running down the banks of the river Blackwater, Maldon's Promenade Park has been a summer haven for many generations of families

The Splash Park

The Galleon

A huge inflatable play area can be often be found on the green in the school holidays. More details about this activity can be found at the organisers Go Bonkers

In recent years Prom Park has undergone an extensive makeover with the salt water lake being drained and replaced with an ornamental lake complete with fountains and resident swans.

Although swimming, paddling and rowing boats are a thing of the past, there is a new children's play area in the valley which includes the galleon, an aerial runway and the popular water splash park to cool the kids off in the hot summer months. (See the splash park information below). Ajacent to the galleon is a large model boating and crabbing lake. You will also find a skate board park and BMX track located on the map below.

At the other end of the park there is a traditional children's playground with swings and slides and a maze plus a wildlife garden.

There are also plenty of takeaway kiosks to feed those hungry tummies.

Swimming is available at the nearby Blackwater Leisure Centre, see the map below for location or visit their web site for more information.

Promenade Park is ajacent to Hythe Quay, the home of the Maldon barges and also two pubs, both with restaurants, should you fancy a drink or a meal. Check out their websites:
