    I really enjoy this park for it beautiful ocean view...it has a walking path that meanders along the Santa Barbara Mesa along the coast line with a BEAUTIFUL VIEW ...it has a couple trails that lead down to beach access. Or you can continue down the cement walkway all the way down to the Harbor and Shoreline Cafe. Recently, however, the beach was heavily soiled with tar/oil and covered my feet with mess...had to go directly to a nail salon so they could SCRUB my feet clean! Though, I don't think it's always like that. Up on the Mesa end is also a park for children to play with climbing apparatuses and sand. Great place to run and walk your dogs!!!

    I had fun walking here with the view of the ocean. Overlooking the beach was awesome! Restrooms are clean. Parking was difficult so I parked my car on the streets nearby and just walked back.

    Beautiful park overlooking the ocean where you see people walking their many fine dogs. You see many beautiful breeds! It also has some stairs that take you straight down to the beach where, depending on tide conditions, you can walk a great deal. This beach is leash free as you head west but dogs must remain in a leash as you head east toward the warf. Great location for watching the sun rise and set.

    Great place to walk with your dog. Get there early if you want to find a nice place to park. The park doesn't allow vehicles over 24 feet but most small RVs will still fit at the end.

    An amazingly beautiful park to enjoy the ocean views. Take the steps down to the beach and enjoy the beautiful shore and cliffs. Well worth the stop.

    Beautiful view, highly recommended to go. Place is relaxing, I recommended to go during sunset, best view and really beautiful. There's a stair way you can take that will take you to the shore next to the rocks where you can just sit down and enjoy the peaceful breeze and sunset! You won't be disappointed, believe me

    Awesome park and great view of Sunset if you access beach using the wooden staircase. Great for picnic or just walking around with a view.

    Loved our lazy walk in Shoreline Park watching the waves, surfers and happy dogs! Clean convenient restrooms and many benches and picnic tables available. Found a stairway down to the waves edge.

    It's always really nice going to the Shoreline Park, specially if you have kids. The bathroom on the north are older than the ones at the south, and are getting dirty by the end of the day. The grass and tables are always clean, which is nice to plan for a whole day at the park.

    Very nice place to have a picnic. Dog friendly. Playgrounds, restrooms, picnic tables and grills on site. Beautiful view!

    A gorgeous park overlooking the ocean. There is a walking path for pedestrians only, no bikes. Dogs are welcome. There are benches, picnic tables and a restroom. You can walk down to ocean level in a staircase near the restroom. There is a parking lot and street parking. The park is at the far end of the tourist area across from homes. I wish I lived there.

    Back around the early 60's a couple of my mom's friends use to take my mom and I there when I was around 11 or 12. Shoreline Park is a great spot to go with a loved one for walks or jogging and for families to have fun. Fantastic view of the ocean and the Channel Islands on a clear morning, afternoon and early evening to watch the sunset.

    Lovely park overlooking the ocean! Free parking with trash bins and restrooms. Walking path is paved and there are benches if you want to sit for a while.

    Lovely park with free parking and two stair access points to the beach area. It's an amazing spot for beachcombing with children when we came in late February. The large grassy fields and coal grills look great for use with large groups, too. I highly recommend this beautiful park!

    A beautiful experience every single time, my children love our picnics, walks, rides, playtime- sand, water, races, and whatever else they think of including for each visit. So peaceful, scenery is breathtaking, plenty of space between people and groups as well. Which can be especially important to most these days.

    Well maintained park with spectacular ocean view, easy access to the mostly rocky beach, nice trails, and plenty of parking.

    Marina area was a bit nasty, but the rest was 🙂 the yacht club had a live band which made it more fun. Dodging the splashes over the sea wall was fun
