Kids Parks in Santa Cruz: Jade Street Park

45th. Avenue and Jade Street, Capitola I consider this a "low commitment" and "easy" park...I don't know why. It has bark instead of sand...so no bare feet.

I really like this park. It has lots of parking but it's usually really busy. The playground is nice but high up so not too fun for younger toddlers

Keep in mind, This park is also where People have SUPERVISED visits!

Nice park but the wood chips end up everywhere...in shoes, shocks, clothes and your car. High swings for the older kids. It is fun when the train passes by..kids get so excited. Good park to bring dogs too.

Please don't bring your dogs to the park! I despise those people, I have small kids...hmmm thats why I am at the park ! we like t play in the grass, until we see your dog taking a pee in the grass or we find that doo-doo your dog just left behind! and I don't want to have to sue you for your dog attacking my child, or have my baby grow up with scars and fears and nightmares because he/she was attacked by your dog. Keep your dog walking and playing in the feilds where they belong, not where kids play!!

I agree with the low commitment statement. The play area is no fun for bare feet. I come here with my toddler occasionally and it is usually not too busy. I like the location. Easy to find and plenty of parking.
