This is a great little family friendly park and my family and I will travel here (and also stop at…read morethe local coffee spot - Lavender & Honey https://www.yelp.com/biz/lavender-and-honey-redondo-redondo-beach). There is a "big" kid park, and also a fenced in toddler park. There are lots of shady trees, and some benches - however some of the benches are in the sun, I would highly recommend bringing a fold up chair. The park has a lot of green grassy fields and boasts the cleanest park/ "public" restrooms that I have ever seen. I love this park, and hope to spend many more sunny summer days there.

We came by to watch a Little League game a couple of weekends ago…read more This is a well maintained park with a nice playground area. The bleachers near the baseball field were typical of the other Redondo Beach parks...comfortable enough to sit on for a couple of hours. But no shade, so wear a hat and sunglasses. There was an enclosed senior center also. Didn't get to see inside, but it's a nice benefit for the residents.

Visited this park on a Thursday lunch time with my two dogs in tow…read more Parking is not free and you have to download the app to pay-per-hour. I found plenty of free street parking across the street and all around the neighborhood instead. After nearly getting hit by a car a few times and getting approached by an intoxicated looking homeless or two, we finally made it to the park. And then that's when we discovered that the place is NOT DOG FRIENDLY. Omg! At first, I thought I saw the signs wrong and had to actually go up close to it. I also witnessed a bunch of other dog owners walking around the park with their dogs but many had them not leashed. That's when it dawned on me why the park has a no dog allowed policy. It's honestly very infuriating when people are so blatantly disrespectful about park policies and other people's safety. Not to mention the dog shit everywhere that really shouldn't have been there. Ugh. And that was enough of LA County shenanigans for me that day.

Their climbing structures are great for bigger kids and they have cool features as well like a chalk board and cool climbing added as well. They have swings as well for the little ones and big kiddos. Their little house they have for the toddlers is great and so fun featuring a small slide. The only down fall to this park is there is no bathroom but overall it's a fun park to visit for sure! There are benches and nice grassy area to hang or have a snack.

It's a few blocks away from the ocean. The grass is very green and nice for picnics. Dogs must be on leashes. I thought the mini picnic tables for kids was really cute. I got lots of recommendations from a Facebook group I'm in for this park. The bad: The bathrooms were blocked off so I used the portable potties by the parking lot. The potties were very full and smelled more than average. I was hoping for a park without sand because my daughter loves sand so much and always ends up only playing in sand and making a mess. The interesting: The cement slides are very fast so be cautious! The parking lot has a six hour limit.
