Best Parks & Playgrounds in Williamsburg for Kids & Families

Looking for the best parks & playgrounds in Williamsburg for kids? As living history where the 1770s come alive, Williamsburg offers free outdoor play and nature exploration that families won't find anywhere else. Whether you're visiting for the first time or looking for something new, we've rated every option for age-appropriateness, stroller access, and value so you can skip the guesswork.

The best playgrounds go beyond basic swings and slides. Look for nature play areas, splash pads, shaded structures, and nearby restrooms. We rate each for stroller access and shade availability. In Williamsburg, expect four seasons — spring and fall are ideal, summer is hot and humid. Pro tip: Colonial Williamsburg can overwhelm young kids. Focus on hands-on workshops (blacksmithing, printing) and skip the lengthy lectures. Busch Gardens is right next door.
