Confirmed from Coronado Tidelands Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Kids' park (also a beach) for families with a playground, picnic tables and sand area.
What runners say about Coronado Tidelands Park
“We visit once or twice every week because it’s always beautiful, peaceful, and very well maintained.”
“It's so beautiful here, I love being right on the Dan Diego Bay over looking the Iconic Coronado Bridge.”
“You can even have a small quiet picnic on the grass while watching the boats go by under the bridge Nice play area for your littles.”
Wonderful place to enjoy with family. Walking, running, cycling, sightseeing, and socializing—all in one place! 🤩 Different kinds of art make the park colorful. The restaurants and cafés are also great places to complete this wonderful area.
Fantastic park with serene views and amenities. My wife and I stopped by early on a Saturday morning to take a walk near the water. We expected it to be crowded, but it wasn't. I assume it got busier after we left, because this park is just too nice to not be packed on the weekend.
Coronado Tidellands Park is my favorite. Very nice place 👌 best view, hotels 🏨 with best view of the ocean, take a walk 🚶♂️ along the beach with the view of the tall city buildings which adding to the beauty of area.
