• Paddling pool on warm days from mid-May to early September, filled with fresh water when it reaches 21°C, with a flag flying when it is open
• Toilets and the Bea Kiosk in the park building by the pool, open on pool days for coffee and ice cream
• No dogs at the pool, the playground or the lawn beside them, so small kids can roam

Beatrixpark dates from 1938 and is laid out around canals, a duck pond with a fountain, and wooded paths crossed by eight bridges. For families, the draw is the round paddling pool with concrete stepping stones and a mermaid statue kids can climb, beside a playground with a big sandpit. The Artsenijhof, a herb garden from the 1972 Floriade, sits along the canal path.
