You can be in the main area where most dogs interact aka the area immediately in front of the gate or walk alongside the edges or the wings of the park and have it be a bit more secluded.

The…read moredog park is a medium size and the dogs who come here are highly energetic and love playing with one another. There are a lot of dogs here and I like that because my dog always has dogs to play with when I bring him here. Also the people who come here are mostly local little Italy residents and are nice! There's a huge tree that provides shade and it's protected with very big and tall metal gates making it private and also has chairs and tables. There's also a very small section for little dogs. I highly recommend this place!

We plopped down a blanket by the path under a palm tree, about 10 feet from the water. The weather was perfect. There was a steady flow of people on bikes, kayaks and paddle boards. We enjoyed it not being crowded at all. It was almost perfect. The only con was there were lots of prickly spiky seed pods and fire red ants in the sand. We moved the blanket but we wanted to be in the shade. We will come back when it's cooler and settle down closer to the water.

It was so serene and peaceful- the perfect spot to rest if you need some peace and quiet. We went on a weekday afternoon and there was only one other person there. The views are absolutely stunning. They have a few benches to sit down, but I would say bring a small blanket to lie down on the grass next to the water. We parked right across the street in the residential area. I would assume this place gets really busy on the weekends and parking might be tough. It's super worth a visit, even if you can only stop by for a minute to take in the views!

The best way to experience San Diego... from afar!…read more Kind of joking but kind of serious... San Diego has taken a downturn in the last handful of years and it's no longer as clean/safe/lively as it once was. So taking it in from across the water in Coronado.. perfect! The park is a lovely way to enjoy Coronado -- away from the hype of the Del and away from the typical beach. I was able to witness a beautiful proposal in the park, and also saw lots of folks just enjoying a picnic, a photo sesh, a wander about, etc. The park is nestled near a small beach and also the buzz of the ferry landing with its restaurants and tourist shops. The park offers beautiful views of the San Diego skyline. Highly recommend a walk through if you're visiting Coronado. 2024: 45/100

We also enjoyed The Children's Park in Downtown, San Diego, CA…read more When you walk towards the Children's Park, you'll be going through a walkway surrounded by water and you'll see birds swimming. The park is gated and safe for kids. Our son loved the playground. The park is across from The Children's Museum. They also have public bathrooms available with security. The park was nice and clean. There are a few picnic tables outside the park. Check it out! Happy Yelping :)

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.

The various dogs and their owners we have met here seem friendly and we haven't had any issues. Parking here is tricky; there is a lot, but it's always full, and the beach can be very crowded, even after 6 pm. You will have an easier time finding parking in a residential neighborhood further down and walking since this area is very walkable.

In…read moreretrospect, bringing a toddler to a dog beach was probably not my smartest parenting move, but she stayed up in our arms the whole time so it was a nonissue (and also a bicep workout). My own pup is too reactive to come to an unstructured setting like this, unfortunately. This beach is surprisingly clean considering the target audience. Other visitors were great, and we weren't the only family with a small kid. Free parking (street and lot) was fairly easy to find on a weekday afternoon despite it being pretty busy. I really appreciate how well behaved the dogs were and how attentive owners were, there were no issues.
