Wonderful beach with plenty of parking & sand to setup for a day at the beach. The weekend is insane & we only walk through. On the weekdays we stay, swim & play.

Enjoy going to the bay, lots of parking and usually very clean. However, lately the old RVs parked on the street surrounding the bay has made the area dirty and with trash all around their RVs on the lawns. Blocks cyclist from seeing cars pulling out. Hopefully they will get the area cleaned up and safe for families and pets again...

A beautiful, peacefully quiet and green grassy place that is inside Mission Bay Park, San Diego. Theres always a place to sit, bring a blanket and some folding chairs like me and the wife do, and bring something to eat .Now thats fun-great views, take pics, I live here and still I like to take pics. I can get a Recent one of my wife or me with the cool bay as background and send them to relatives- good idea ha!!

A good place to have a campfire and relax seeing the night away. The down side is finding a spot before the fire pits are all taken. Spots go fast on the weekend and on holidays. I was surprised that parking was optional during covid-19 drama.

SOME THINGS WE SAW Half the areas inside the park require an admission price such as the Science Museum and Japanese Tea Garden while others were easy to just enter and view such as the bison enclosure, the Dutch windmill, many playing fields and playgrounds.

Lots to see, lots to do. From taking your bike for a ride, taking in the sunset with a walk or enjoying some time with family on the beach or working on your fishing reel thus park gives you lots of freedom. Im no doctor but Playa is a good place to release stress from work, if you know youre going to be stuck in the highway yall might as well put some running shoes and join the hundreds that do so here.

2019. Parks in the area, Bird and Lyft scooters to ride on the mile long sidewalk, and lots of grass area to sit and watch the sunset and bay.

Nice bathroom! Simple, clean with one urinal and separate toilet stall with four (4) feet high wall and locking door for privacy. There is also a small changing area (five feet (5) by six feet (6) inside the restroom itself (no doors, just a built in cement bench). The shower stall is located on the outside of the restroom. The shower stall has three (3) walls which means the public near you can observe you. We visited the restroom at 1am and it was still open. It does have a security gate so the bathroom is probably closed at some time but we dont know the hours.

Although not topnotch, this is a decent enough facility to wash the salty scales and sand off your body after a dip in the bay. The restrooms are also good and hygenic.

We have a portable fire ring and brought it to this location to hang out. It was very nice. I liked it because there was no one around and we could chill. It was a beautiful night and peaceful too. If you’re looking to relax on a weeknight, this is a great place to go.

This is the second time I have been here and it is a great place to hang out with your family. I love the beach but this is a good place to take little children so that they can hang out in the bay the majority of the day. There are bathrooms in close vicinity and there is a playground as well. On the weekends during the Summer months the parking lots fill up quick so plan on getting there before 10am to set up and obtain a good spot.
