What to Know

This is a free public park with street parking available in the surrounding neighborhood. No on-site food vendors, so plan to bring your own snacks and water bottles for the kids.

Seasonal Notes

The park is open year-round, but Daly City's coastal climate means mornings can be foggy and cool, especially in summer. Afternoons typically offer clearer, warmer conditions. No special holiday events or seasonal closures.
