Beautiful location Nice trails ButThere is no covering for shade on the large playground, way too hot to play on in the Summer sun And no covering over the swings Cannot even swing on those in the Summer sun. Was disappointed bathrooms did not have changing area For babies in diapers. Few upgrades and it would be perfect.

This is delightful paved walking and biking. Cool in the mornings, EARLY, with breeze off the water. Benches along the way, ever so often. Breathe deeply and enjoy! Playground for the kids at Shamrock Park with zany equipment. Occasional foot trails off for those interested in more nature like walk

We had a nice long walk that is paved along the water coastal. Stopped at a covered table for our packed lunch. Nice breeze. It was a wonderful day.

Is the trail dog friendly?

Jeff Messick | Sep 2, 2020

Yes, lots of paths and they connect to the main trail along the canal. Lots of walkers, joggers and bikes. You need to keep your dog on a leash.

This is crazy...is that park only open two days a week? Why? Can you walk the trails any day of the week or is the entire park locked except for Tuesday and Thursday? Makes no sense to me!
