I thought the old park was better than the new one.

Probably relative to how old your kids are. My kids are 2 and almost 5. It's great for them. Probably not as good for the older kids though.

Isn't there stuff on the other side as well?

Pop over to to the shops at Victoria Point, only 2-3 minutes away

I used to do loads of shopping in Capalaba, but with all our new shops here, I don't need to go there very often now.

There are some small beaches in the local area, suitable for little kids (no waves or surf);

Cleveland, about 5-10 minutes away from Capalaba.

Victoria Point, about 10-20 minutes away from Capalaba.

Better than Isle of Grain beaches, but not as good as Blackpool
