    San Pedro is where I go to clear my head. Although it is part of LA, it sure doesn't feel like it. Except for the new high rise condo/apt. buildings that block out the sun, between the Arts District & the harbor, Pedro seems thus far virtually untouched by developers.....what a joy. So here's another San Pedro green space, that offers picnic areas, bathrooms, and spectacular views: Harbor Walkway is a narrow stretch of park/paved walkway, that runs between Paseo Del Mar and the ocean bluffs. You can walk from White Point Park/Royal Palms State Beach (at Western & Paseo Del Mar) to Point Fermin Park at Gaffey. Not a long walk, but a beautiful one. Along the route there are dirt paths leading down to the water. It's so uncrowded on those paths (sometimes deserted) that the local ground squirrels apparently haven't learned to fear humans. They dart out of the brush right in front of your feet. One day when I was walking there, I got to see a line of tall ships in the distance, departing from the previous weekend's Festival of Sails. Simple pleasures, on a grand scale.

    This place is gorgeous! If you take the trail all the way down to the water and cross a few unstable rocks, you reach the one of the most breath-taking place I have ever seen. It was perfectly quiet with just the waves crashing. I wish it was closer so I can run away and just relax for a little bit away from the hectic city life. Will be back whenever I am in the area.

    This little parky is right on the side of the street. And there are 4 pathways down to the rocky beach. If you like to work out this place is great. I love this little gem, and the people who enjoy it. They pick up after their dogs, toss their trash in the bins, say hello to each other. The veiw is breath taking. What makes this place so spacial is the breeze. I feel this little area is the coolest part of Los Angeles. It could be 101 in LA and Long Beach, but it would be 76 here. There are some intresting old trees here and there. I am not a hippie but every time I pass by I like to feel them. Their artestic shapes make this place really unique.

    Beautiful place to relax, walk, etc. The Harbor Walkway is located nearby to the Korean Friendship Bell and can actually see it from here. There are a few long paths which can you walk and take in the amazing ocean views. My date and I stayed for several hours and watched the sunset. Luckily that day, the sunset was taking its time. The changing colors of the sky was breathtaking. There are also public restrooms available. I will definitely be back to enjoy the ocean scenery of Catalina Island. San Pedro has so much to offer!

    I love this park! When I used to work at a school nearby, I used to take my special education…read morestudents with my teacher's assistants for a walk on CBI (community based instruction) to Weymouth Corners and visit the post office and the bakery, as well to other shops in the area so they (the students, not the adults ) could practice making purchases and other daily life skills. Then we would continue to AP to eat lunch and feed the ducks which the kids loved to do. Averill is a nice, peaceful spot to escape the rat race for a short while and recharge before continuing with the stress and demands of daily life. Many students, unfortunately, live in foster homes that rarely take the children out into the community to learn how to function in the REAL world. Too many are placed in front of the TV when they are not at school, just being fed and receiving the bare minimum of personal care so CBI is important for them to be able to function in the community after they become adults and age out from qualifying for foster care anymore. The benches by the lake or the gazebo located in the upper part towards the northeast part of AP are especially restful areas to regain your sense of sanity and to recharge. If you happen to be in Pedro, bring a snack and beverage so you can spend time with the ducks and enjoy some downtime in a peaceful place.

Started off someplace else and just continued on to see and stop off at all the locations nearby. There's a good amount of parking along the street as well as some along the neighborhood. The park itself is overly big but it does have a good size to it. The nice massive trees lined the area. There's a nice little path along the sides where it looks out to the Pacific Ocean and the cliffs below. It was low tide so seeing the tide pools was quite beautiful. Along the path are little covered area which are label by number. Like mini covered patio with a table and seat. They too all looks out to the water. I believe there was a total of 8 seating enclosures along the path. Also, loads of squirrels roaming the place like it's nothing. They are not scared of you so be warn. Clearly there were signs not to feed the wildlife but there was people out with bags of peanuts feeding them. In the middle of the park is a little stage area and with benches. I'm sure they have theatre in the park happening if that's set up. And a playground around the side of it. There's also a lighthouse which is a focal point of the park. Situated right in the middle which now double as a museum. It's a cute park that I never knew about. Decent size for picnics or a nice wander around. The view alone along the path was spectacular. The cliff edge is dangerous so practice caution. Common sense, but they also had signs posted about suicides. It's a cute neighborhood park as along the front are homes right across the street.

    Beautiful views of the ocean, I heard peregrine falcons nest in the nearby cliffs to the right of…read morethe park. Great picnic spot with wide swaths of grass and shade from trees. There is a scenic path along the edge of the park that is a relaxing walk, fresh air and breeze. The fruit sellers have a good variety of fruits, even cactus fruit. The pergolas with tables are prime spots, if you see a table open swoop in and grab it right away or it will get swooped up! In my short visit, I saw families, romantic couple and a guy jamming out on a guitar and a motorcycle club taking a rest break.

It is a symbol of friendship and community not just to South Korea, but Koreans living in United States. It is also a beautiful landmark surrounded by the cliffside vista of the Pacific Ocean below.

Plus it's been decades since I was last around this area. There's so many stops along the way during our drive which this was the first along the path. It's a nice decent size park that it part of. A good amount of parking in the lot next to the basketball courts. Right along the bell is a massive grassy knoll where people were enjoying picnics and laying out. Of course today was beautiful but it was quite windy. Didn't help that the park was little higher than the rest so it made the wind a bit more aggressive. The focal point, the massive bell. With a walkway that leads you to the prize possession. Right in the middle looking out to the Pacific Ocean, she sits there on full display. The bright beautiful color of the details painted was a sight to see. Stairs leading up to the bell where you could walk around. It is roped off. Regardless whatever side you're looking at, it's was quite amazing. Something like this on a hill that's part of the city. If you walk down the grassy knoll, the view of the pacific ocean and cliffs were spectacular. Having a seat and just taking it all in was nice. It was windy so it did get cold but on a nice sunny and clear day, you could see miles and miles of the coastline and tide pools. These little hidden spots in the city are cute when you find them. There's also a little playground around the corner from the bell by the exit and entrance.
