HUNTINGTON
BEACH CALIFORNIA PUBLIC PARKS
Huntington Beach, California parks
There are approximately 70 parks in the
public park system in Huntington Beach offering mostly green lawn areas, picnic
tables, children's playgrounds with the newest Playworld
Systems safe equipment that usually includes stations with
ladders and slides and a separate swing set in soft,
cushioned material or a sand pit. Most swing sets (not all)
have baby swings and regular belt swings for children and
adults. Some of the parks have basketball courts, volleyball
courts and a few have tennis and racquetball courts and
clubhouse facilities. Also included in the public park
system are three skate parks, an historic Newland House
grounds and barn facility rental, wedding and event function
facilities and the huge cornerstone of the park system,
Central Park with over 350 acres of facilities that include
a disc golf course, equestrian center, lakes, restaurants,
library, dog park, nature center, outdoor amphitheater,
indoor theater, meeting rooms, library, summer adventure
playground and more!
While most parks offer picnic tables, the
majority do not include grills on site. We were told by a
park official that you may bring your own grill but for
safety, should never place it on a table or near group
sports activities and near children's play areas where it
would endanger children. Restroom facilities are not
available unless mentioned.
