When the weather is looking good, you often want to go out and enjoy it! We are a bit adventure family at the Hadley-Sullivan household, so we have gone to so many different parks, splash parks, and outdoor areas all year around, to explore what they have to offer. Since we have been to so many places over the years, we decided to put together a bunch of the best free play parks in Essex to visit with your children, to better make use of the summer holiday and sunshine! There are a few play park-adjacent places in this list, but they go well with the getting outdoor and playing activities!

In the United Kingdom, Sea Life is normally a sort of brand of aquariums, that are all around the country.

Adventure Island is very close to our home, and so we go so often! Though Adventure Island is an amusement park and arcade, there is Adventure Golf attached to it, which allows people to pay a fee to take on one of two mini-golf courses. We have passed this on our way into the park several times, and it was finally time to try it out. There are two different courses at the Adventure Golf that you can take on and we went for the one that sort of moved above the other, getting some height in the course!

As we are attending loads of seasonal events at amusement parks this year, when our friends invited us to come to Wonderland at Adventure Island with their family, we were well up for it! We are seasonal pass holders at Adventure Island, which gave us a discount on the Winter Wonderland tickets and a free pass to each go in and use all of the other rides at the park. It is worth noting the Wonderland ticket does not include rides this year (though I heard it did previously) and you will need to book separately!
