About
Large public park between Old San Juan and Condado with mature tree canopy — the shadiest outdoor spot in San Juan. Playgrounds, walking paths, green space, ocean views.
Free. Open daylight hours. The shade alone makes this special — most San Juan outdoor activities leave you exposed.
Bring a picnic. No food vendors in the park. Condado restaurants are a short walk.
For families on a budget, the combination of quality and free admission is hard to beat.
