Nice park with view of Coronado bridge and downtown SD, plenty of open grass area for running and playing around, saw some football and rugby games going too Has a nice path for runners, bikers, dog walkers... etc Plenty of colorful well maintained playground structures, my 3yr old had a blast going down the slides and crawling through the "tunnels". She also enjoyed climbing and sitting on the oversized bright "thrones". I got my small circuit training routine done in their work out area with situp bench, multiple uneven pullup bars Will be our go to park when we're in the area read more

Tidelands Park - Parks Near Me - Coronado, California

A pretty nice park. When Adam and I came it was a Sunday morning and we came to have a breakfast picnic of some donuts. There was ample parking available and also a ton of picnic tables. Adam and I were able to easily take over a picnic table and enjoy out breakfast and the views with no issue. You can see the water as you are actually right on the water and you also get really great views of the Coronado Bridge. There is a walking path that we walked after eating and enjoyed the views and walk right into Coronado. There is also a bunch of artwork you can view and enjoy through the park. Overall, a pretty good place that Adam and I enjoyed and would come back to for further walks and picnics! read more

Once you get over the Coronado bridge, take the first right onto Glorietta Bay to find the Tidelands parking area. This park is first class in my opinion, they offer lots of amenities, plenty of parking and is thoroughly cleaner than most parks you'd find in San Diego City proper. Not only is there a large upkept grass area to play soccer, football but they also have a nice baseball field. If you're into cycling, they have you covered as well because the park sits at the beginning of the Glorietta Bay pathway that you can literally take all the way out to Imperial beach / Chula Vista area if you follow it around the bay and navy areas. Water activities is another popular thing to do here as it's a perfect place for kayaks and boards. I usually come here in the summer mornings to enjoy some paddle boarding around the bridge and bay area while it's still quiet and the weather is cool. You'd think the bridge would be really loud but it doesn't seem to bother me much. If you're visiting Coronado or planning on a nice area to have a barbecue, Tidelands Park is a great place to do that. Although if you are attempting to visit this place during a summer holidays such as July 4th, I'd get there really early because this place is usually full by morning time. read more

Tideland's Park just happens to be the finish line for The Navy's Bridge Run/Walk. Lets address the tiny beach at Tidelands first. I mean, this park is named Tidelands. You would expect land and tides. None of that here. The beach is not much of a beach. It's more like a huge sandbox close to polluted water. My suggestion, don't swim at this beach. My advice, don't drink the water. The purpose of this mini-beach is to maybe lay out for a tan. But that's it. As for the park itself, you won't be too disappointed. This park is huge and is also connected to Ferry's Landing where all the shops and shopping is located. This park also has additional amenities including softball fields, a skate park, playgrounds, walking trails, and beautiful views. Yes, perfect views of DTSD and SD's landmark, the Coronado Bridge. Parking here is usually pretty good unless you're here during a 3 day weekend or another fun run. TIP: Enjoy SD's gorgeous weather. Rent bikes at Ferry's Landing and enjoy!! read more

This is a nice skatepark, not much of a competitive vibe here, and it is so beautiful.. Friendly staff, park supplies pads and boards if you do not have one. My only qualm is that they don't let parents inside to watch or help, even if the park is empty and there is no wifi. Spectator seating is very limited if close to none at all. I would consider this a nice break in spot for kids just learning to skateboard, I also appreciate the fact that no scooters are permitted. There is a large grass area surrounded by palm trees and nice little beach you can go relax at close by. There are real bathrooms close by and not port-a-crappers.... with real sinks, soap and running water.. read more

Note that dogs are only allowed on the paved walkways (on leash). A police officer stopped me as I was walking my dog across a grass section. He said dogs are only permitted on the concrete in this park. read more

The park has a great view of the Coronado Bridge. It's also merely a hop, skip and jump away from the gorgeous view of downtown. There's a playground, a few baseball fields, open space, a skate park and a little tiny corner to work out. They also have restrooms and a tiny parking lot. Be aware it gets crowded on weekends. I have great memories of this place. As a teenager living out of Paradise Hills, my cousins and I came here to celebrate birthdays, have picnics and go kite flying. For many years, this was a tradition we kept up, until everyone started getting married/having kids/moving to the newer side of Chula Vista. These days, I usually come here to run after work. It's less crowded than running along Harbor Drive. You don't have to feed meter parking. There are so few tourists to dodge and no fear of being run over by a pedicab. Though it feels a whole lot safer than running downtown, don't forget to run smart and pay attention to your surroundings. Otherwise, good points all around. If you take the path that heads towards downtown, behind the Marriott hotel, and up to Centennial Park (north of the Ferry Landing), it's about 2 miles there and back. The view of downtown is gorgeous, though you'll have to dodge a small number of tourists. Late in the afternoon, it's not so bad. If you take the path that goes under the Coronado Bridge, you can get a nice, flat run along Glorietta Blvd. It's about 4 miles from Tidelands to the Bluewater Boathouse Restaurant and back. It's about 6 miles, if you take it a little past Glorietta Park and back. If you've done the Coronado Valentine's 10k, you know what I'm talking about. If you want to be a rockstar, Tidelands to the entrance of the Coronado Cays, on the southside of the Strand, is about 13 miles. Go, you! read more

It's so unfortunate that they have such a huge space with lots of grass that dogs are not allowed to go hang out on. Maybe they should take care of the homeless that camp out in the bathrooms and worry about dogs later. read more

Great park very clean - nice views. Kinda tucked away off the bridge. We really enjoy bringing our lil guy over here to burn off some energy. Lots of options for us to do. Great open space for kites, running, dogs to play etc. I'm not sure why they put a workout area in the middle of the kids play area - that part kind of creeps me out but I just make sure our kids don't go over there while someone is working out. The bathrooms are clean but the women's stalls (can't vouch for the men's) have no doors and I can't recall a changing station for babies but I could be wrong on the changing station. Overall we always have fun here and I feel safe when we come to hang out!! read more

Good place to take a shot of the Coronado bridge! Public parking is available if you are driving! read more

Tidelands Park - Parks Near Me - Coronado, California

One of the better parks in San Diego, but somehow, I don't love it. A decent playground for kids with a great view of the bridge, and a long boardwalk for riding bikes and good long walks along the bay. Maybe it was the 3 bounce houses set up for birthday parties or the company picnic blaring Mariah Carey songs circa 1992 over a PA; it could have been the countless people wearing Chargers jerseys, but something left me feeling a little bit ghetto for talking my toddler to play by the bay. For a great playground in Coronado, try the Sprekels Park. read more

Lovely park, awesome playground and lots of tables. Dining within a mile walk, along the harbor. *no doors on the women's bathroom stall, so it was a little awkward walking passed people trying to use the bathroom lol* read more

We were there for a soccer tournament... Surprise surprise! That would have been fine had it not been for the, wedding, company picnic, and family reunion that was there at the same time! The park is great the only thing I dislike was the bathrooms! They don't have doors or soap dispensers. I know some parks don't but for some reason I thought this lovely park would. Will definitely come back the view of the bay is awesome. read more

Perfect place to launch a kayak right under the bridge. An excellent place to have a picnic since the Chula Vista side can get a lot more windy. Easy to get to by just crossing the bridge and then the first two rights and you are there. Just a great place to chill out, picnic, ride a trikke or bike, kayak, etc. read more

It's a very big spacious park perfect for large family reunions, birthday parties, bbq's, or even just to stroll with your dog. It's perfect for all ages and will not disappoint. It overlooks the Coronado bridge and has a fantastic view of downtown San Diego which can be overlooked on the pier which is walking distance from the park. I went here for a family luau get together and i was surprised on how much space they had. A bunch of picnic grass areas to plot your area in. My dog seemed to like the area and I'm so glad it's a pet friendly area too, they provided doggie bag posts everywhere for your doggie's needs. So I was very stoked about that. They even had a small beach area too right next to the park if you wanted to get your feet wet in the water or touch the warm sand. Overall, this park is perfect for all ages and dogs as well! read more

Very nice park right at the base of the bridge. Full of exercises, families, kids, and fun. A large green space frequently has group exercise or games going on. A playground is a hit with the kids. Bathrooms make it family friendly and being connected to the bike path makes for convenient travel. read more

Nice park. Bathrooms have NO DOORS. Half the people here leave their trash everywhere, diapers in bathroom, toilet paper all over bathroom. If I had a park party here, I'd order a private Porter potty. read more

This is one of my family's favorite spots to host our get togethers. Very low key, quiet enough. Beautiful view of the city and the Coronado bridge. Easy to find... Sometimes parking can be a bitch, especially on major holidays! so get there early!! They allow grills... but there aren't too many tables/chairs so I suggest bringing your own fold outs. Plenty of bike trails so bring your bike! A big enough park for the kiddies. Oh their bathroom is kinda gross thoughhhh. read more

Nice place to paddle. If you're coming for a beach to play in, probably not the place for you. But the park is really nice.

Great park with a great view of the Coronado Bridge and parts of downtown. There is plenty of free parking and open space. It's a really nice place to relax and watch the boats go by or bike/stroll along the sidewalk which leads to Seaport Village in one direction, the golf course and Hotel Del in the other direction. The sidewalks are not very well lit at night (like most public parks), but still has a very safe vibe. read more
