Hot on everyone’s lips right now is the sensational upgrade of Umina’s Peninsula Recreation and Active Lifestyle Precinct.  Costing a cool $10 mil, but worth every cent.  From all accounts, this new precinct’s upgrade is epic and pleasing crowds.

New Umina Skate Park

There’s a full-sized basketball court under floodlights, and a futsal court over at the Umina Tennis Courts where building improvements have been completed as we as the addition of two new sports ground amenity buildings at Umina Oval. This significantly improves facilities that service local rugby, soccer and cricket sporting teams. 

Let’s talk about new park and playspace – look out for all new park furniture, shelters, and water refill stations.  Plus the pretty damn cool and colourful bouldering climbing units that have been added.  All spaces and areas are linked by connective pedestrian pathways and fresh landscaping, coupled with the car park’s accessible spaces, this area is great for accessibility.

And, not to be left off the list of improvements the new BMX pump track! With its high-quality asphalt finish surface, it offers riders with a range of abilities and wheels the opportunity to enjoy.
