    Love this park! Perfect spot for sun, breeze and a view of the San Diego City and Coronado Bridge! There is a park with plenty of space for sports and pinics or parties. There is also a path around the park and also along side the water....this leads under the bridge towards a golf course.. If you head the other direction it will take you to the Ferry Landing with cute shops and restuarants. Parking is free here. No homeless ppl, clean and safe. Wish the restrooms had doors. And the playground needs a swing perhaps. But all in all...my son enjoys climbing, sliding and playing in the sand. It is near a bike rental is you dont own your own..and a skateboard park as well.

    Here's the entry to Coronado Tidelands Park! Take the first right after you come off the bridge!

    I really wanted to give Tidelands Park five stars but it fell one star short for me. It's hard to exactly pinpoint the reason for me, but I think it's mainly because the walkway is too short to my liking. I have created a couple of YouTube videos for my channel here, and I'm sure I'll create more. But I just feel like I want to walk further up the San Diego Bay when I visit. As for the good stuff, the views are just awesome! You can get outstanding photos of the city of San Diego and the Coronado Bridge. It was good practice for vlogging and working with my new camera recently, which I thoroughly enjoyed. There's an excellent children's playground here that is just about always being used as well. It's clear this is a photographic site. It's fun to find other photographers here on my visits. Get to have some good chats, talk about our gear, and share some tips for shooting and photo/video creation too! There are baseball fields here and they can be occupied on the weekends. When they are, parking can be tight. I will say the parking lot is pretty large, but events and times of the year can affect parking availability. I really like Tidelands Park. It has good scenery in just about all sections of the park. It's hard to create a bad vlog here on the scenery side of things! Come visit! Its proximity to the Coronado shopping area is a plus too!

    What a great park on Coronado Island!!! I came here in the evening, and you can't beat the views from here of the Coronado Bridge when it's all lit up. As we were coming, a lot of people were leaving, I could tell this is a very active, popular park during the day. It's spacious with a lot of open grassy areas and picnic spaces. When coming off the Coronado Bridge, keep right and take the first exit, it's very easy to miss, but well with your time!!

    Cute park with a view of the bridge, but not a great place if you're looking for good beach access. There is a lot of open area to enjoy activities outside. Very popular place for group events apparently. The parking lot was nearly full.

    Most beautiful park I've been to yet with that scenery! I couldn't help but sit for a moment and breathe here! Take it all in with the view, calm waters, and sports taking place. What a blessing honestly! Kids park nearby, soccer fields, walking trails and much more! Just stunning and cool!

    A beautiful San Diego day

    This is a beautiful park along the water, with beautiful people, beautiful views of downtown San Diego, the Coronado bridge, and bay. There are plenty of grassy areas for picnics and a few tables for parties, and a baseball field. The day I went for a run here was pleasant -busy, but not claustrophobic. There was an SUP class being held on the water near the fitness bars and bike path. It looked really fun. I tried to run along the bike path by the bridge, but I had to turn around because there were obstructions due to construction and abundant wildflower overgrowth narrowing the path. So instead, I made my way past the dog walkers, tourists, the mommy and me strollers fitness group, the seaside spa and resort, the shopping center, and up to the ferry landing. Come here and enjoy one of the many the splendid places that make San Diego great.

    No doors on the bathroom stalls

    I feel like the most important thing that I could tell you about this park is that there are absolutely NO DOORS ON THE BATHROOM STALLS. I was shocked to discover this and I browsed the Yelp page before going here and no one seemed to mention this huge oversight. Mothers had to hold up beach towels as makeshift doors so that their children could have privacy. I came here for the park, so no privacy for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm a mom so 9 times out of 10 I'm never alone in a bathroom anyway, but not with strangers. I imagine that prison must feel similar. I'm glad I only had to pee. Aside from that, beachfront park. Grassy areas. Parking lot available, but was packed because of it being a Saturday afternoon. The play structure seems relatively new (maybe within the last 5 years) and sturdy. This was my first time here and I wouldn't go out of my way to come back here.

    Great park on Coronado island with view of the San Diego skyline, landing planes, and the Coronado bridge. Went there on a Saturday during the color the sky kite event and some booths were set up for food and selling items. Wonderful views in every direction. Nice walkways. Plenty of tables and green grass. There were people having a great time, flying kites, picnicking, and some guys filming an exercise video. Large parking lot, with free parking. It was very crowded so had to drive around for a few minutes to find a place. Enjoy my pics.

    This park sits adjacent to the Coronado Bay Bridge. It a sizable park, and it has courts, fitness equipment, and a playground. It is a family friendly and peaceful place. I personally like coming here when I walk around the island, and get a few sets of pull-ups and dips in. Because it isn't an excursion for me without exercise! If you're looking for a nice place to bring the family, or a place to have a nice picnic, this is definitely a good spot.

    Nice view of the Coronado bridge. Has walking path along the shore. Need to go back and check out how far it goes. Ample parking. The public restroom is just weird. Open cubicles, no doors. Came to celebrate my nephew's death anniversary. Peaceful place.

    Bicycling weathervane along soccer fields and walking path
    C C.

    Sweet park with amazing views of San Diego. As other reviews describe in more detail, soccer and softball fields, playground equipment, tiny beach for kayak or SUP boards, picnic areas. (The restrooms are old school beach bathrooms, no doors, metal toilets--just be prepared, but nothing to be freaked out about.) Love the bicycler weathervane, she is AMAZING! Overall, during the weekday it is a calm peaceful park with beautiful views!

    Ask the Community - Tidelands Park

    Is there bike rentals at the park?

    Yes they do I believe it's called rays rental. They rent bikes, jet skis and kayaks but not quite sure. It's located behind the Marriott.

There are four big pine trees with separate retaining walls around three of them for owners to sit down. With it being so close to the bay, there's often a nice breeze that goes through the park. There's no divide between small dogs and big dogs, so it's best to just keep an eye on your dog, and many owners around here are usually respectful. The street parking immediately adjacent to the park is free, however, it has a limit of 30 minutes, and the parking meter workers are strict on it if they're around. I bring my dog here around lunch time because those who live/ work in the area tend to bring their dogs during their break time and my dog gets his socialization time. They close 8am-11am MWF for maintenance/ cleaning. Currently, both gates are broken so it's not as secure as it should be, and who knows when the city will actually fix it. There're a few agility structures and a water dispenser. The children's park itself looks pretty cool for kids with a lot of structures with slides and swings. There's also another separate area with fixed exercise equipment that looks well- maintained. The water feature in the park is a water feature, not a pool.
