Heisler Park is one of the most beautiful oceanfront parks in Southern California. The views here are absolutely stunning. There are scenic paths along the cliffs, palm trees, tide pools, small hidden beaches, and incredible sunsets -- all in one place. It's a perfect spot for a relaxing walk by the ocean. I especially like coming here around sunset. The light over the ocean is beautiful and it's a great place for photos or just to sit and enjoy the view. There are also grassy areas that are perfect for a small picnic while watching the ocean. Parking is usually metered nearby, but the park itself is free to visit. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Laguna Beach. read more

What a beautiful park. I was two weeks postpartum and wanted to challenge myself to step out of the house with our fresh newborn. We took a drive out to Laguna Beach to enjoy some fresh air and it was just beautiful. I loved coming here to walk around safely with my newborn. We brought the bassinet with us and it worked out perfectly for our stroll. Also, the beaches here are beautiful! I felt like I was in Hawaii for a second. read more

Heisler Park is one of the best parks in Laguna beach! It's pretty large for a beach park. It has a clear walking path,places to sit down to look out at the ocean, and bbq pit areas. Very clean! Plenty of restrooms to use and are clean as well. This area is safe as well. Laguna beach police are actively around to monitor the area. Also, the park is dog friendly. My favorite part are the sunsets you will be able to get a spectacular view of the sunset from any point in the area. read more

10.11.25 - visited this place for the first time and wow, it was beautiful! It's a great place to go for a walk and get in some exercise or to relax and hang at. You can go down to the beach as well. There are many spots where you can stop at and just take in the view. My favorite spot was the view from the gazebo. At the time I visited, there was a violinist playing in the gazebo. That was nice. We parked over by Urth Cafe since we ate there before walking over. Parking was a bit tough to find. We had to circle around a few times. I'm not sure if it was as packed in other areas around the park but I imagine it was. read more

I came here around 6pm to walk and get my steps in. I saw a video on IG about Heisler Park touting it as the best park in OC and calling it a "hidden gem" . Well it's no hidden gem but it's absolutely beautiful. Keep in my that it is a park so there a picnic tables and a grassy area and most importantly the Pacific Ocean is your backdrop. Yes, you can fully access the beach from the stairs leading to the beach. My only issue was parking. It gets crowded so it may take a minute to find a parking spot. There is metered parking until 7pm daily payable by cash or credit card. I did see a trolley running down the main road adjacent to the beach. That might to use instead of fighting with parking. Overall. I really this park. It's families but it's also very romantic! read more

Heisler Park is so breathtakingly beautiful, that every time I go here (even though I only live 10 minutes away), I feel like it's the first time! I've traveled the world, and I will say, it is one of the most spectacular pieces of land anywhere on earth. The beauty is on par with Maui, it actually feels like you're in Hawaii when you are there! It truly takes your breath away, and clears the mind of any stress. It's such an enjoyable pathway to walk your dog and just soak in the breathtaking vistas. The lush greenery, the beautiful trees, flowers and plants, everything is perfection! They also have easily accessible and clean public bathrooms. It's such a great place to go with family, have a picnic, read a book, meditate, do yoga, just spend time go & inward. You want to be completely present and soak in the natural beauty! It is a must see destination for anyone who loves nature, the ocean, marine life, and amazing positive energy! I spend a lot of time here and always enjoy myself thoroughly. If you're having a bad day, go to Heisler Park! read more

Seems to be a popular place for hanging out and photo shoots. There's an upper level with grass and benches where you can see the ocean, and then the actual beach down some stairs where you can walk, lounge in the sand and watch the surfers, seagulls and more. There are restaurants alongside the beach as well with nice views. read more

Heisler Park - View of ocean - Parks Near Me - Laguna Beach, California

Was brought out here by my brother, we were going to a Global Underwater Explorers 2024 community day! We came early morning to set up at the bbqs and score about four to six picnic tables for all the scuba divers. Really clean and safe park with breathtaking views of the ocean. I enjoyed a short walk up and down the park looking at the sculptures and people walking their cute dogs. A family friendly park, I felt really at peace and relaxed after taking in the fresh air. Wonderful temperature at this time of year just can have a bit of the coastal marine layer that makes the sky grey but burns off as the day gets on. Parking is metered, so make sure you put enough time as the metermaids are in full force at this neighborhood. Trust you will get a ticket if you have anything from expired tags or go over the limit! read more

Nice little park with sandy and grassy areas. Access to the beach, lifeguard towers. Plenty of shops/restaurants in surrounding areas. There's also a playground for the kids. Didn't have time to explore the beach as much during this visit but it seems pretty popular for locals and tourists alike. read more

Heisler Park is a beautiful place to visit at Laguna Beach. There are a lot of people walking, some with their dog, and people to and from beaches below. There are plenty benches to sit down and enjoy the view. It's an oasis to spend a couple of hours on a scorching hot day. Ocean breeze and sounds of the ocean have a magical power that cleanses the mind and spirit. The traffic wasn't bad when I drove down around 2pm. There were ample parkings on weekdays. Personally I avoid come here on weekends when it is very crowded. Laguna Beach has a parking app by Frog Parking I downloaded to my phone to pay for parking. The drive leaving the beach was heavier but no worth than 405 or 91 during rush hours. My recommendation is move to the left lane quickly to avoid merging traffic. read more

By far the very best public space in Laguna Beach This few block long park is perched atop the cliffs above the beach. Beautiful lawns, park benches, and picnic area of world class and spectacular views that never get old. Just steps from Las Brisas restaurant, but there is no need to visit there as the views are the same with the snobby service at the most expensive restaurant in town. read more

Stunning Views & Pure Laguna Vibes Heisler Park is the kind of place that makes you stop and soak it all in. The ocean views are absolutely breathtaking, and the walking paths are beautifully maintained with flowers, art, and ocean breezes everywhere you turn. We grabbed a spot on a bench and just watched the waves roll in... total bliss. You can wander down to the beach or just enjoy the scenery from above. It's peaceful, photogenic, and everything you want from a coastal escape. Parking can be tough, but it's worth the effort. A must-visit in Laguna! read more

We drove more than 2 hours to get there and more than 2 hours back home. It was worth it! Heisler park is a quaint clean and delightful park overlooking an astounding sandy beach with clear water and rock formations. It is perfect for families and friends or artists or simply anyone. There isn't much shade so bring your own. It also suitable for picnics. On a weekday, parking was easy to find. There are meters that charge 2 dollars per hour with a 4 hour limit. Look at the photos and enjoy! read more

Cant believe I had never been to Heisier Park. Took me and my girl here over the weekend, and it was fun, and pretty crowded since we had a warm weekend. Out by the water near Laguna Shores. Lots of people bring their loved ones, pets and families. Scenery was great, and this will be our go to spot. read more

Heisler Park feels like the kind of place Southern California postcards are modeled after. Overlooking the ocean with winding paths, palm trees, and views that make you stop mid-walk just to take it all in, it's equal parts beach access and scenic overlook. On my California road trip, it was the perfect breather between tacos / dessert stops and a reminder that sometimes the best part of the journey isn't food, it's finding a spot where the Pacific just shows off. read more

Heisler Park - Wonderful view... - Parks Near Me - Laguna Beach, California

No joke, this park was incredible. I read that it was stroller, friendly, and indeed it was. You can park on various meters some have different time limits. It's essentially a walkway/cliff above the ocean, where you can walk freely and then if you walk down enough, you go into the quaint downtown area. There was one area, however, and trying to go to the downtown region, that was stairs that we had to pick up our stroller. I am sure though if we adjust ourselves, there was a workaround. We passed by a restaurant called Brisas that seem to have a nice view of the area if you also wanted to go for a meal. There was another side of stairs that can bring you right to the beach. There were these cool signs right next to an area that tide pool, so you can have a DIY experience of sorts. There was a slight smell to the beach I thought, but that happens. There is also a playground right before you get into the downtown area, I wish we had more time to explore. These were some of the most amazing views I've ever seen in my life. Seriously, every photo is picture. I definitely hope to be back here. read more

Beautiful beach. Make sure you get there early, parking gets full after 1030-11am. Connects to the main Laguna beach.

Parking was by far the worst part of the visit and took some patience, especially during busy hours. Once there, though, the views are beautiful and make the effort worthwhile, with scenic paths and great ocean overlooks throughout the park. read more

Awesome daily walk along the ocean and Cliff Dr. What an amazing opportunity to stay healthy, to enjoy life, to take in as much as you can see, smell and touch from nature. Grateful from friends and blessed from life. Find the beauty anywhere you at, don't take living and nature from granted. Others are not as fortunate as we are. read more

We came on a weekday, late morning and found parking easily. I enjoyed the waterfront pathway. On the paved pathway, we walked pass four beaches- Diver's Cove, Picnic Beach, Rockpile Beach, and Main Beach. The park also has benches, picnic tables and barbecues. A picnic would've been a great idea. There are also restaurants located along the way with beachfront views. The scenery was beautiful and we enjoyed our time here! read more

Heisler Park is one of the most beautiful places I've strolled in SoCal. Parking is a bit difficult, either look for one of the lots or street parking. There are various shops nearby if you want to do some snacking or shopping but stroll along the coast here. Listen to the waves, watch the beautiful blue ocean and sky. The cliffs and the water just give it such a gorgeous view. Want to get out of the sun a bit? There is also a shaded gazebo with bench. A must-see altho I almost don't want to write this so I can enjoy the view without a crowd haha read more

Just an extremely beautiful, quintessential California coast line views of rocky cliffs down to the ocean. I take " out of towners " here all the time. It is a great place to have a picnic, walk, sit on a bench looking for dolphins (a regular out here) and just soul search and zen. If you have not walked around the coastline like this, you are missing some spectacular landscape and pictures. read more

Stunning park. Hubby and I took our pug here last month for a morning stroll. We arrived around 8am and found metered parking along the sidewalk. We paid by the hour and I don't remember the cost, but it's under $5. The park is well maintained and you get a beautiful view of the ocean from the cliffs. There's a lot of different stairways to access the beach. You can also walk down towards the boardwalk and enjoy downtown Laguna too. Honestly a really great spot for a date or to spend time with family. The views are amazing here and it's worth the drive out here. read more

Love this park!! It's such a gem!! It's very beautiful here.. We parked at the meter right outside of the park. We walked toward the "downtown" area and got ice cream before strolling back and walking to the other side of the park. It's such a beautiful path, stroller accessible, so that's a plus!! There are restrooms located throughout. The park also has grassy area and picnic tables. BUT they also have access to go down via stairs or ramps down to the beach! How amazing is that? These areas maybe closed off though if tides are high. The park also has a lot of art pieces that are unique. It's a really good place to stroll around. I'm envying the people who have access to this park as their backyard read more
