This park is close to the burbs. It can be seen from Highway1. It was created as part of the…read moreCloisters housing development in 1989. It had a playground, restrooms, big green lawn areas, parking lot, and walking paths to the wetland and beach access. I was quite impressed with the green lawns. A lot of room to run amok. And the Morro Rock impressively stands in the background. Gorgeous! Can never get tired of that view. Another thing to note is that the park has no trees. This was done on purpose. The omission of trees was done per guidance from the Coastal Comminssion to protect the wetlands. Being from the Central Valley, the weather is much hotter and a park without trees is unimaginable. But the lack of trees at Cloisters Park didn't make my visit less enjoyable.

Our daughter loved the swings and seeing all the wildlife (ducks, squirrels, seagulls). The playground looked clean and well maintained and safe for little ones to play around on.

Plenty of parking and good midway between Cayucos and Morro- but closer to Morro. Short drive in either direction.

We came to check out the Black Hill Trail!…read more Parking lot is limited, but it's a great out and back trail. We took the exercise loop and went up black hill trail, and then took grove trail on the way back and linked back to exercise trail -back to parking lot. Bring hat and water- the trail is partially shady but gets really hot. Some breeze, great views up top! Caution: there's a lot of poison ivy lining the path- don't advise small children or pets on the trail.

While visiting Morro Bay we drove by this park a few times. The playground area looked great for…read moreour almost 2-year-old. We decided to head to the park one evening. The park had many homeless hanging around it. We proceeded to the playground area that was a hit for our daughter. While playing, the homeless started converging and one even came into the playground area that was separate from the rest of the park. She stared at us for a while and made a gesture of a gun, pointed it at us and walked back into the grassy area. We left shortly after as my wife was made very uncomfortable. Great little park. Not the greatest experience.

This event was held in a small neighborhood park (Morro Bay Park). Morro Bay Park was one of the first dedicated parks in the city of Morro Bay. Here you will find large open spaces, basketball court, play area with swing, slide, climbing structure, drinking fountain, restrooms, WWII Memorial Monument, and Morro Bay Transit bus stop. Overall a wonderful neighborhood park. Ideal for family gatherings and perfect for the City of Morro Bay's Special Events "Art in the Park & Holiday Tree Lighting Festivities". Enjoy !

As other Yelpers remarked, Anchor Memorial Park is not your typical park. It's a small area,…read morecontaining a memorial to the local fisherman that were lost at sea. Beautiful, quite powerful tribute. It's located on Embarcadero Street right next to the end of the waterfront shops and along the boardwalk walkway to the Morro Rock. Great view of the harbor and docked boats. There are two picnic tables and a bench. The bench is shaped like a surfboard and is dedicated to the memory of Donald B. Grant, a fisherman lost at sea in 1953. The memorial is a statute of a boat anchor with the statue's pedestal having the first initial and last name of the lost fisherman etched into it. The names are easily visible since they are engraved with a contrasting color onto the black background.

It is also located close to several different eating places, so if you want to grab a bite to eat or a sweet treat and sit, this is the perfect stop. The giant anchor in the middle of the park has the names of fisherman who have been lost at sea over the years and reminds people that Morro Bay is and always will be a fishing community with a rich history of fishing.

The grassy hills are great for running around and being adjacent to the ranch property makes it fun to see cows. However, like every other park in Morro Bay it is falling apart and a slide is now closed. The spiral slide always scared me since the stairs don't seem safe since a kid could easily fall off. But still a fun park, I just with the parks department would do a fundraiser or something so our parks could be properly maintained and repaired.

Despite a busy morning and a wait to get on the court, everyone we met was incredibly friendly. We began in the beginners' court, but it turned out my friends were former tennis players who quickly adapted to the pickleball rules and techniques. So, we moved up to the intermediate middle court and had a fantastic time. The crowd, although a bit older, was warm and welcoming. We shared plenty of laughs, and my friends loved their first pickleball experience, planning to return the next time I visit Morro Bay. Although there were only three courts at the park, they were well-maintained. $1 per player. I can't wait to play pickleball with my buddies and these wonderful people in the community again.

Coleman Park in Morro Bay, CA, finally got a remodel. This iconic park sits near the impressive…read morebehemoth of Morro Rock. The remodel updated the play area equipment to be modern, safer. Gone are the steel swings that pinch fingers, and get toasty warm to the touch in hotter months. Gen X style. Restrooms were updated as well, The adjoining parking lot was restructured making the lot closer to the park and more accessible. The enclosed basketball court is still there. The historical marker of the First Filipinos in America moved closer to the three stacks and Embarcadero Street. The park is right along the coastal access walking path (which is ADA compliant, nice). The path connects from the waterfront (aka Embarcadero) to the Morro Rock. From the path, one side is the park and the other is directly next to the gentle harbor waters. When I was there, there were a couple of sea otters super close. They were lounging about eating. Providing quite a show.

My elementary school-aged kids spent approx 15-20 minutes here and did not want to leave.

The pay off for those who go is a small, furnished (both restrooms and picnic tables) park on the bluff (like the name of the street) with a beautiful view of the bay, the boats, and the sand spit. What is really nice is you can see the people on the Embarcadero, and in the park below on the water, and while they may be crowded, you are in a wide open park, with expansive view. I love to lunch here, or dinner with daylight savings time, and enjoy the view, the shade and the breeze. Wow, I think I have to leave now to go on a picnic! Guess where?
