2.) City Park - The City Park, located on Front St., right along the water, is popular with local kids and families. At the entrance to the park is an adorable redwood bear carving, and also a huge hollow redwood section, 1600 years old, for kids to play in. A bike path goes along the water's edge, plenty of grassy areas and picnic tables. And you'll get the best views of the Crescent City harbor and all the fishing boats.
