Why go

Paofai offers room to slow down after the city's market and traffic. Paths connect planted areas with the waterfront, while open lawns and covered resting places allow a visit to be as short or relaxed as you choose. Treat it as a park walk rather than a swimming beach.

What to look for

  • Waterfront paths
  • Lawns and shaded resting places

Useful to know

  • Use the established public approach and check any access notices on arrival; the map point marks the visit area.
