    Small community space in San Marco, I've seen high school bands preform here, families enjoying the gazebo and space, it decorated for Christmas and more. I usually end up walking through this park because I have to park away from whatever business I am going to. I love the lions statue- it is iconic to San Marco. I've enjoyed sitting at one of the benches waiting for a friend, or ducking under the gazebo in a rain storm. If you've been to San Marco, chances are you have driven by or walked through this little park.

    What do you say!!! There's a name for that tiny patch of grass that I have personally coined, "San Marco's Square." LOL! Honestly, I never knew the name of this park until I GPS'ed Balis Park for a Derby Day Fashion Show I've previously booked. Surrounded by local boutiques and eateries, this park is the centerpiece of San Marco. Comfortable enough for a relaxing evening; a quick stroll; or chatting with friends. One of my favorite landmarks whenever I have to meet up with friends or photography clients in San Marco. It always appear very well kept and I love how the groundskeeper or San Marco locals decorates this park for the holidays, especially during Christmas. I believe this park is the perfect location for a small wedding around the fountain and gazebo area.

    This is mostly a small space with a gazebo, a statue of a few lions (that look a bit sad to me), and a few but pretty green spaces. A little park of sorts. It is surrounded by various restaurants across the streets. I didn't try any of them but I heard good things about them. It must be a nice place to sit down at dusk and just breathe a little, and I probably would've done that if I had been there at the right time. What I did do was to walk around, and it is refreshing, even though it is right in the middle of a couple of streets.

    The Christmas tree has been turned on! It is beautiful and all must come see it. Balis Park is in the the middle is the San Marco "Square". It is a small but wonderful park for all to enjoy. They sometimes have special events out here. I took a picture of a Gator last time I was out here. It was right before the Georgia/Florida game. They have three beautiful Lion statues, a rectangular fountain, a wonderful gazebo, benches and table/chairs to sit & talk, read a book or just sit & relax. The best part of this park and San Marco is the roundabouts to slow the traffic down and has become very Pedestrian friendly. The rest of Jax. should take notice of this.

    This is a small but beautiful park in the heart heart of San Marco square. My running group usually starts our weekend runs here and it is often full of runners, sometimes yoga groups, or other fitness fanatics willing to get up and out by 7 am. It is well maintained with a gazebo that would make for a picturesque photo background. There is usually plenty of street parking and enough choices to feed a post run appetite.

    Sadly this may have been a nicer little park in the past, but clearly it needs some TLC. Took our…read morepuppy there Nov 4th and honestly we turned around and left after only a few minutes on the trail. It's become run down and appears that it's not being really cared for as much. Some trash around and on the start of the trail. Beware there were tons of mosquitos on the trail and a stray cat. Who knows how many more. We really have no desire to go back. Those pictures of the "lake" do Not Look anything near like that in person in a negative way sadly and I would probably barely call it a lake.

    Losco Regional Park is a really nice park with a really nice walking path that goes around a lake…read more It also has a children's playground, a few soccer fields, a splash type water park, public restrooms, adequate parking and much more. I can't believe that this is my first time here as I am often in the area and seek out parks to walk and get some steps towards my minimum ten thousand steps a day minimum. But now that I have discovered Losco Regional Park, I will say that I will definitely return to this wonderful park. This park was also pretty popular on this particular Thursday morning. There were plenty of people enjoying the park. Losco Regional Park is truly a great park and I definitely recommend a visit here. I will also give Losco Regional Park an overall rating of five stars. Go check Losco Regional Park out for yourself.
