The actual wooden "boardwalk" is a very short bridge crossing over the lake, but there's a paved pathway that continues on both sides, with a rocky shoreline, plant life, and lovely lake views.

We had just flown into SFO the night before and were looking for a good park nearby to go to,…read morethankfully we saw that this was right next to CuriOdyssey which we were planning on going to. The parking fee to enter the whole greater park is reasonable especially with all of the things you can do in Coyote Point. One of the cooler playgrounds we have seen, clearly this was really well thought out. Having the 3 story castle really got our daughter excited as soon as she saw it. The dragons to talk through to each other is really unique. Our daughter had a blast playing here and meeting a couple of kids early in the morning. Well maintained park, clean, seems to be a pretty safe spot. As a parent chasing a 4 year old the fencing between the big kids and little kids area was pretty annoying since it lacked gates where I would expect them to be.

Then, there are a couple of different options of play structures available that are suited for different age groups. They also have a big basketball court that was not busy at all when we came, so we got to use essentially the whole thing to practice shooting hoops or even kicking a soccer ball around. There is also an enclosed dog park right next to the basketball court, although it's a bit smaller than other dog parks. On weekends, there are softball/baseball games in play in the field next to the park, but we were able to find parking relatively easily in the street. Bring a jacket if you come - even on a warm day, there are many areas of this park that are shaded due to the heavy trees in the area so it can get a bit chilly if you're in the shade.

Small but so cute! Very well taken care of, especially the fish!…read more Close by to a lot of shopping centers so it's nice to be able to eat and come here to walk it off with cute views. Parking - street parking and there is an "underground" parking lot under the tennis court that is only a few skips and a hop over to the garden. Best tip is it is free on Sundays (for now at least) No food/no pets/no drink which makes sense!

It has a somewhat awkward layout wherein the concrete trail does not go full circle and leads to dead ends that force you to turn around and backtrack. But the place is small enough that it hardly matters. There are alluring features all around, trees and greenery (bamboo, bonsai, and more), beautiful even in late fall when cherry blossoms are not in bloom, sculptures blending in with the surrounding wildlife, a lovely pagoda and teahouse with seating where I was able to lounge for a while. Water flowing along the streams, fountains gushing at the center of the pond, several bridges where visitors stop to take photos, too. Also, plenty of signs reminding people to stay on the path. Be aware, no food, no drinks, no dogs, and no strollers are allowed on the pathways in the garden.

There was a lot of parking when we went on a Saturday afternoon. They had a few parking lots scattered in the area. There are a lot of picnic areas that you can reserve for the BBQ grills. There were plenty of bathrooms scattered throughout the picnic areas. The one I used was relatively clean and had plenty of toilet paper. They have a lot of trails here where you can bike or walk. You can watch the planes go in and out of the airport above you! There are also a lot of birds hanging out in and by water if you want to bird watch. I was hoping to catch some sea lions but I guess they weren't around. There is unfortunately a lot of powerlines in the area that would spoil an otherwise nice view but what can you do. I also saw there was a yacht club by the water! I saw you could rent the facilities for parties (not sure if you had to be a member or not).

My most favorite part of Coyote Point Recreation Area is the CuriOdyssey, which you can see my review for separately. Although this is a beach, it's unlike any beach that I've seen in SoCal, at least in my area. Pretty green, murky, and muddy, I wouldn't say it's the most ideal to go into, especially if you're not going to immediately shower afterwards. I don't think I saw people in the water either, even with it being June, but the breeze and cooler Bay Area weather kept everything nice and mild. Most people were flying kites or just going on walks. There are rentals for wind surfing and there were a couple people suited up for that. I heard there was a cosplay gathering here and it made many a cosplayer's outfit green though...There are playgrounds for the kids, a good amount of trees, a couple trails, a marina for the boats docked there, and some monthly/seasonal community events as well. I don't think I'd normally visit this area if it weren't for the CuriOdyssey, but it's not bad when I am there.

Hopefully, that atmosphere will return, I'm pretty sure it will and I'll check out this park again!!!
