Things to do in San Diego, California (CA): The Best Playgrounds
San Diego embodies laid-back California culture, complete with a Boardwalk, surfing communities, and outstanding Mexican food. Breathe in the fresh ocean air at Sunset Cliffs Natural Park, then gobble down a fresh fish taco at a La Jolla seafood joint. The naval aircrafts at the USS Midway Museum will have you standing at attention. A free Sunday concert at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion is the perfect way to unwind after a Saturday night bar-hop in the thumping Gaslamp Quarter.

Sprawling beautiful park in the center of SD and middle of beautiful community! Was invited to a child's B-Day party pre Covid-19. Was amazed at this hidden gem. Fountains and water park for kids, basketball and sports areas, picnic tables with happy families enjoying this oasis in middle of Mission Valley. Plenty of well maintained grass to lounge on, as well as park benches to relax or converse. Plenty of parking - even on a Saturday while 7-8 large parties-gatherings were occurring. Very safe. No homeless people hanging around. Bathrooms were surprisingly immaculate. Park allowed a catering truck to offer tasty & hot carne asada too. My 3 year old and I had a great time.

One of the most popular urban parks in the United States, this bucolic paradise is packed with an array of attractions, including the world-famous San Diego Zoo.

Who knew Southern California had an international-like escape. Old buildings and churches, open city squares for dining under umbrellas with fountains and birds, vendors, huge outdoor piano organ, church bells ringing, museums, botanical gardens, bridges, zoo, on and on and on and on...you could spend a whole day here easily. I felt moderately like I was back in Prague or Guatemala. Such a cool place.

I took friends to Kellogg Park after a lovely walk along LJ Shores Beach and they just loved seeing all the kids and families enjoying picnics, playing frisbee, and playing at the playground. This is such a great family place. Beach and grass, leisure or active, water and land, family or solo.... something for all.
