Sport and Outdoor Play at Al Fay Park

It is equipped with hard courts for basketball and futsal, ping-pong tables, a skatepark, rock-climbing walls, monkey bars, and multiple tree-lined, cobbled, and water-facing walkways. The park also has a soft play area and fountains for young children. The open-plan layout of the park is perfect for walkers, riders, and rollerbladers.
