Have you ever been out for a stroll, or a family day full of activities, but you are unsure where to go? If so, you are in the right place. In this blog we are going to give you the top 5 parks to visit in Coronado. Come explore with us.
#1 – Coronado Cays Park
Coronado Cays Park is a flat, grassy and spacious area that is ideal for sports and other activities. The park is huge and more suitable for athletic activities than picnics. There are virtually no trees but there is a playground on the southeast end. You can also play catch at the baseball diamond, or show your competitive edge at tennis courts on the north end.
#2 – Tidelands Park
Tidelands Park is the biggest park in Coronado. It’s packed full with areas for playing, running, biking or jumping in the bay. Tidelands Park offers impressive views of the Coronado Bridge and paths for rollerblading, picnic benches, a jungle gym, workout area and impressive sculptures.
#3 – Centennial Park
Centennial Park is a hot spot for wedding party photos and events as it offers breathtaking views of the bay and downtown San Diego. The park is steps away from the Coronado Ferry Landing which has great local eateries and small shops & art galleries. Centennial Park offers wide-open spaces and an unmatched San Diego skyline view.
#4 – Spreckels Park
Spreckels Park is maybe the most well-known park in Coronado, located in the center of our island. This beautiful park has a gorgeous gazebo which comes to life every Sunday in the summer during Concerts in the Park. The park is equipped with a great jungle gym where families and large groups often visit. Spreckels Park also hosts lots of Coronado community events such as the Coronado Flower Show & holiday celebrations for children.
#5 – Bay View Park
Bay View Park is a beautiful hidden gem on Coronado Island. It has one of the best views of the San Diego Skyline in the city, and yet this small pocket park is rarely visited by tourists. The view looks out across San Diego Bay from a gap between homes on the north side of the island. You can take the Coronado Ferry to get here, and it’s just a short walk west on 1st Street to I Avenue. There are benches provided that are in the shade of tall trees. Enjoy a coffee or lunch at the landing before heading over here!
