Kids Parks in Santa Cruz: Frederick Street Park

168 Frederick Street (Frederick @ Broadway) This is another great park! Gated tots area Together in the park here on Thursdays

Nice variety of climbing structures. Bit chilly in early months of the year because of the large amount of trees- perfect i'm sure in the summer months.

Lots to do, fenced toddler area, path to the harbor, friendly and safe feeling. Good shade in summer, picnic tables for parties are nicely situated. Very old skateboard area that my kids just like to run around in, or push their trucks around. Bathrooms are nice, drinking fountains for kids and dogs!

Awesome park. Huge fields, big kid play ground and a gated little kid one. the only problem, the sand is full of debris- tons of choking hazards for the under 2 crowd

Great park...right above the harbor. So great for both big and little kids. A nice field and clean/well maintained park area.

This is a great scenic park for kids and adults. Picnic area overlooks the harbor under plenty of shade. A separate tot lot is enclosed by a fence...keeps the older kids away for the most part. Never too crowded. Best park in Santa Cruz!
