Kids Parks in Santa Cruz: Jose Ave. Park

End of Jose Ave, Live Oak Together in the park here on Tuesdays. Nice Park with skate park for older kids.

...this park features the County Parks first ever 'skate park' along with a community garden, basketball court, play structure, art, an open field and restrooms.

Nice park. Feels secure with play areas far from road. Nice play structure, adjacent to shaded pavilion area seems like it'd be perfect in the summer.

very clean. playground isn't that big but it's nice and safe. The skate park generally is being used by high school kids or younger no drinking or smoking going on which the other skate parks sometimes attract

Ok play structure...clean and colorful but kids get bored easily. There are teenagers lingering about but doesn't feel unsafe. Great skate park but the park you could skip.
