Yumekko Land (夢っこランド)

Flow of the course

About this spot

Yumekko Land (夢っこランド) is the play equipment area inside Akashi Kaikyo National Government Park (国営明石海峡公園), right next to the splash pond. The comfortable order is to spread a picnic sheet in the nearby shade, eat lunch and rest first, then start moving on the equipment. Getting into the water after working up a sweat on the playground makes the coolness feel even better. It is close enough to move back and forth with the splash pond, so setting up your base for bags here makes the afternoon flow smoothly. The park opens toward the sea, so the breeze makes it more pleasant than the middle of town.

Tips

This park charges admission (free for junior high school students and younger). Fees are listed together at the final water play spot. Opening hours change with the season, so check the official website before setting out. Play equipment can get hot in the sun, so touch it to check before letting children play. Rubbish must be taken home, so bring extra bags.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour. Combining lunch and the playground makes a good run-up to the afternoon
