Wow, this place has never been reviewed on Yelp? So many people uses it. I mean, in Foster City,…read moreit's one of two ramps to launch recreation water vessels. The other is at Leo Ryan Park. I've been here when it has been busy and times when I have the place all to myself. There are times when a dragon boat organization uses it to practice. Have used this ramp for many years - SUP & kayak only. It's pretty clean (but watch out for the geese poop), 3+ level acres, and has lots of parking. There's an adjacent dog park and bathroom. Picnic tables and lawn area makes this park a nice place to picnic although according to the Park & Rec webpage, it's not reservable. Go and enjoy the waters!

I came here a few times after a day trip in SF or other parts of SM county and it's always a good time here. The only catch is you must come here at the right time otherwise there will be a lot of noise from soccer or baseball players. For the San Mateo County native this is the best place to watch sports if you got kids who are in a league or gather around with family and friends and just have a picnic. This is one of those large parks in Foster City btw so enjoy it while you can. I also came here when my local little league was doing a matchup game with the team in Foster City. There's also a snack bar here! Mind blown. I don't find this in all of my local parks in my county. When a game is going on, you win. You will love the view here as well. Best time to come here is either in the morning or during the sunset hours before the park closes because it gets super nice during that time of the year. There is also a nice place for cyclists and runners to enjoy with the long path nearby. This is in a nice neighborhood where everyone knows each other, so come by all means. Note: First come first serve here. Also be aware of your surroundings because things can get finicky here.

The Redwood Shores Lagoon is a true hidden gem in Redwood City. Located in an industrial area…read moresurrounded by office buildings, residential homes, and hotels, it's a quiet and beautifully maintained spot that offers a peaceful escape from the bay area hustle and bustle. Getting here does require a car, but parking can be tricky. I didn't see any designated parking areas that weren't tied to hotels or office buildings, and there's no street parking. I was able to visit after staying at the Grand Bay Hotel San Francisco, which has easy access to the lagoon right at the back. There's a walking path that circles the lagoon, where I saw people enjoying peaceful strolls or walking their dogs. It's also very family-friendly--some sections of the lagoon lead to playgrounds for children, making it a great spot for both relaxation and a little fun for the kids. I especially enjoyed watching the sunset and taking quiet walks here. The surrounding greenery adds to the serene atmosphere, with some of the most beautiful willow trees I've seen in the Bay Area. It's refreshing to find a body of water that isn't touristy. There's not much else in the immediate area, so for food or other activities, you'll want to drive at least 8-10 minutes out. Overall, if you're looking for a tranquil spot to unwind, this lagoon is a perfect choice.
