Laureate/Mata Park in La Jolla Shores is simply a large patch of grass maintained by the City of…read moreSan Diego. I've walked by it scores of times without really noticing it ... until today. Anyone can use it, and reservations can be made for parties up to 150 people. There are no tables, benches, parking lot, or restroom facilities. The park is edged with engraved cement slabs bearing the names of La Jolla Shores residents and businesses that contibuted to creating this park in 1972, originally named Mata Park. These slabs form an open air time capsule from over 50 years ago. I found it very interesting going around reading them.

Laureate Park is a very small pocket park located at 2211 Avenida de la Playa between El Paseo…read moreGrande and El Paseo del Ocaso, near La Jolla shores. It is a nice patch of green grass that also has Pump Station 27 hidden away behind some fences and plants. I was lucky to find a parking spot in front of Laureate Park today so I could go to the beach. I noticed the park and since it is located near many of the great places to eat in the area, many people will picnic there or just hang out. There are some offices nearby and lunch time brings out a lot of the workers to enjoy the sunshine. Though Laureate Park is kind of smallish, I always applaud open spaces and green areas--especially in congested areas. Though one of the most beautiful beaches in all of San Diego is just a few blocks west, it is always great to have a nice little park like Laureate.

Students from the United States, China, Mexico and Russia worked together to help build this San Diego location. There are also three other international parks located in cities on the Pacific Coast. Other Pacific Rim Parks are in Tijuana, Mexico, Yantai, China, and Vladivostok, Russia. The park is centered around a monument designed by wonderful local architect James Hubbell called the "Pearl of the Pacific." The view is beautiful at Pacific Rim Park. It overlooks busy San Diego Bay, where Navy and cruise ships pass by on their way to the Pacific Ocean. Across from Pacific Rim Park is the popular local Kellogg's Beach. This is a very special place. The non-profit Pacific Rims Parks Foundation that was co-founded by James Hubbell, "seeks to enhance the metaphor of the Pacific as a catalyst and symbol for an emerging world culture that values diversity, beauty, and respect for all people and all cultures, as well as the natural world," according to their website. Parts of Shelter Island can be somewhat touristy and schmaltzy but not the beautiful and serene Pacific Rim Park. 5 YELP STARS, all the way! .
