Went to visit a friend and his son and enjoy the afternoon and the neighborhood. Very cheering to see all the children of various ages enjoying the space together. Spent all of our time in just the one corner near the entrance, but saw all manner of activity: bicycles, skateboards, roller skates, frisbee...also, lots of kind, welcoming people there. 5 stars for Community!

This is a wonderful fenced in playground in the North Beach/Little Italy area. Theres a lot of activity for kids & adults to enjoy. We had a blast over the weekend after dinner.

A nice hidden kids playground. ️️️ Much needed for more accessible sidewalks for parents with strollers. Getting from one side of the park to the other end on Columbus Ave.

This is a very luxury city park near Fisherman Wharf. Easy parking on street meter, and also beside a library and swimming pool. You can spend at least 1 hour easy here.

Fun, funky, beautiful park and playground. Soft ground for the littles, play areas for big and small children. Safe with a fence and latched gate. In the heart of North Beach so parking can be tricky. Also has fairly clean public restroom. Library next door and coffee across the street. Good people watching. Love this park.

My nieces love this playground very much. It has good space and amenities for kids all ages. The fake grass is soft and durable when the kid fell, they dont get hurt much. It also locates near public library and swimming pool, which give everyone in the family enjoy all kinds of activities.

I was at the 2019 Italian Heritage Parade. I attend every year traveling 54 miles from Antioch. I believe this year was my 45th year. I missed 2015 because I was out of town.The parade is a great experience for young and old. It’s Fleet Week Sunday so the bonus is antique in lane flyovers, a United airlines jumbo jet flyover and the Blue Angels.

Nice playground Brought my kids here quite place light traffic

Brought our son to play here, very clean, small and good playground. You can sit and watch your kids from all angles. It’s clean, a lot of architecture involved . There is also a pool, parents can do reading, work, drink coffee and spend time with their kids here .

It was a fun atmosphere. Community around us was nice and theres friendly people. Nice widespaced area to have your kids play. Basketball courts, tennis courts.

Nice playground for kids 3 and up plus they have a pool. Parking is not the greatest but its SF what do you expect. I went on a few of the structures and they are modern, well maintained and fun.

Its a great park to bring your kids. Lots to do. Also with the library next to it thats a added bonus. If your in the North Beach area stop by. Thanks

Best place to play tennis in SF.

Great place to let the kids unwind.

Great playground for kids of all origins, a real melting pot! And nice diversity of games too.

Bring the little ones and enjoy watching them be kids. Large playarea with slides, swings and lots to climb on. Worth a family stop!

Whether you live in San Francisco or just visiting, take your kids there. Really good playground with plenty of equipment for little ones. My kids loved it and its close to fishermans Wharf and surrounding areas. Great little gem in the middle of the city!

Always packed with neighborhood kids and babies. Library and swimming pools are all next to each other. Great for kids from few month old till 12.

Took my kid to play basketball. Even though there was another OPEN basketball court, this Indian adult just came over with his other friends and took over the court where my son was playing. He had the nerve to take my sons ball and use it with asking. What a douche! The neighborhood changed over the years. Use to be a lot of neighborhood kids playing all the time. Now you get these adults(transplant from another country) just taking g over the basketball courts without any manners of asking if they can shoot with you or share the court.

Showing my kids where I grew up, I used to come here when I was a kid when it was called the North Beach playground. Totally renovated, beautiful playground area now moved from the top section to the lower deck by the pool and library. The pool is still here, used to be $0.25, now $1.00. still a great bargain. Just missed the sandy playground.

This newly renovated playground is perfect for everyone. The playground provides, well just that, a huge playground for the kiddies, basketball, tennis and boccie ball courts. Indoor Swimming pool, a club House to rent out and public library. It has two very small bathrooms one for men one for women both equipped with a baby station and a bunch of picnic tables that can be rented out for special occasions.

Clean and well maintained. The park features simulated grass on a spongy bed it feels great just walking around never mind if you fell on it. Its well organized featuring something for children of all ages.

Great park! We are visiting the San Francisco area and my kids (6&7) loved this park. It was totally inclosed so I felt safe letting them run around. They had water fountains and bathrooms close by... they also had lots of people and lights around as it got dark so I felt safe.

It is a park with different rides from the other parks that we have seen. It is among our best park. Very neat and clean. It is a nice place for kids to refresh while they are tired of roaming around Fishermans wharf. We love this park.

Really cute playground. Saw lots of young kids playing there. Seems to be a nice area.

Its traditional in North Beach to love Joe DiMaggio

So much fun! For adults, too! The kids have many choices of what to play on.

Great playground for the kids with a neat swing. A pool is next door and the library too. Decent bball courts and tennis courts.

Wonderful redesign of a long time neighborhood park. Great for kids. Excellent basketball courts and tennis courts.

Can do many activities, very clean. Good place to learn to skate

The children enjoy the special swing. First time saw and play it. People are courteous to take turn. Dog stay out of playground area. The toilet are clean enough. Excelent playground. Parking around it are free on sunday. Great place to be in. We spent like 3 hours there.

Amazing place to rest and have fun, interesting and unique play toya

So much fun! Lots of play choice and friendly people.

Watched a great kickball game, which I did not know existed outside of grade school...Well lit and maintained.

Place is cool people check it out really cool park

This place is awesome! Within walking distance of Pier 39. Fully gated with one entrance is great for keeping an eye on your kids. There is a wide variety of playground equipment and fun for them to enjoy. Nice place to let the kids run after a drive into the city.

Wonderful playground, nice clean swimming pool. Wish there were a few more basketball courts with all the space thats there

Great playground for toddlers to older kids. Very safe equipment to include a soft artificial turf. So kids can be adventurous.

Great tennis courts.

One of my sons favourite playgrounds.

I doubt if Joe ever set foot here, but it is the best place to sit down at 4 AM.

Very fun park for your children, weather can get chilly so stay warm

Super clean and new. Best park around

Very nice playground with lots of things to do. Swimming, basketball, tennis

Very safe bleseed park....good family atmosphere.

A unique & large playground great place to have the kids get their energy out.

This park is next door to our friends house. We hope to visit there often. Such a modern design for a kids playground.

This is a kids paradise. Soft ground, fun things to climb on. The facility covers an entire block with a swimming pool too!

Your kid will love it here! There are kids from all ages playing on the playground equipment.

My kids love this park whenever we are in San Francisco!! The only things I dont like is there isnt much to do for my one year old & the steps are kinda steep & dangerous!!

Great neighborhood playground. Clean.

Bathrooms need to be cleaned, but playground was great!

Wonderful.

Great playground for kids of all ages. Love that their was no sand, very well thought out.

Kiddo went wild climbing and sliding and more climbing and the running and sliding and clean restrooms all in the same area!Id post a picture, but theyre all blurry! He didnt slow down for the hour we were there!Easy to find and free!

Joe was a famous baseballpalyer and loved SF native. He married Marilyn Monroe mere blocks from the No Beach playground.

I played with the kids... lol. I hate being an adult

Very fun place to go hang out and also has a few nice skateboarding spots if you’re into that. They have water fountains, a closed in play area with turf ground and cool modern looking play structures, and basketball/tennis courts, with smooth ground. Overall I think this is a great spot to chill at for a while and be with friends. Usually not too busy but sometimes there can be a lot of people. Also has bathrooms and sometimes you can get a spot right in-front. I give this park a 9.5/10 just because of all the fun stuff to do and I’ve met plenty of chill cool dudes here.

This park has bocce courts, basketball courts and tennis courts along with a great play area for kids. There is also an indoor pool.

I think I enjoyed this park as much as the kids did. Super clean, enclosed park with unique play structures--allows kids to stretch their play boundaries and bring out the kid in adults.There is a massive climbing dome, large metal slides that one can race on, and an awesome structure that I can only describe as a combined see-saw and swing. I laughed until my chest hurt.Located just around the corner from North Beach restaurants and shops. Good place to hang out when youre waiting 1.5 hours in the Tonys Pizza queue.

The play structures are unique.

Tennis courts, basketball courts, and a kickball/stickball field. It’s so much fun.

Great tennis coyrts and more. One of the best grounds in SF.

Nicely landscaped. Beautiful flowers, plants and trees.

Cool place

Good place for kids.

Pros: beautiful after remodeling, nice playground for kids, 3 nice tennis courts, 1 full basketball court plus 2 half courts, got one of the largest tennis wall you can find anywhere, lighted until 10 pm, has restroom.Cons: not well designed for tennis. There used to be stairs next to tennis wall so one can easily retrieve balls hit over the fence, but now you have to walk the equivalent of 6 blocks (3 blocks each way) to retrieve ball and go back to the wall. Plus the holes on the fence are too big so that balls can get through, not so with the old fence. The gaps on one of the gates into tennis courts are too wide so balls can get through. Usually long waits for tennis courts on weekdays around 6pm. Basketball courts can be hit or miss. One of the half courts net is too tight so ball can get stuck. Restroom closes 2-3 hours before park closes.

Nice place to take the kids, so they can unwind

I take my kids here all the time. The ground is soft and it doesnt scare me if my toddler falls. And a few interesting play structures for the kids to climb on.

Great spot for the kids to have fun.

This park was a great place to let the kids play and get a little rest for my feet. This park is beautiful and has a A+ play area.

Very cool playground for the kiddos

Open space next to library

If your traveling with little ones and they need a break, this is a great place for them to come in and run around and find familiarity. Swings for toddlers, a climbing area, slides, and stairs to climb. Next to the small park is a basketball court.

Good location, easy access, clean site, friendly play mates, locked gate and very safe for kids. The only reason why it didnt get a 5 stars is that it is not too big of a place.

Really nice playground, best glider ever!

Three things you need to know about Joe DiMaggio Playground:1. theres an indoor pool2. a sparking new playground3. a public libraryYep, its the place to be. The park has all the required equipment from slides to climbing structures to basketball courts. Theres a great looking indoor pool as well some spiffy new landscaping. Youre unlikely to find a nicer park anywhere in the City, so head on over and see for yourself.

Such a fun clean park

Its really nice place for hanging around and playing

This place have nice play ground nice structure but the basketball court is outdoor its okay good

Great range of kids play equipment, surrounded by cityscape views. The only downside is not much shade.

Beautiful clean kids playground adjacent to pool and library! Clean bathrooms and good play structure. Good for kids 2 and up.

Nice playground, been remodelled some time before.

Really nice and clean playground. Great for kids 2-8 yr old

I went at the Playgrounds clubhouse for a birthday party recently. It was a nice cozy area for good in door parties. Playground is a big complex with areas for different outdoor sports like basketball, soccer, etc. There is also a play area for kids to have fun.

All new playground, with large space for kids to use their bikes or play sports. Next to the library and the swimming pool, also a great spot to meet a lot of locals and their families.

Love playing tennis here. Very family oriented park. Well kept courts. Theres a really long, big wall to hit against if your partner is running late.

Good community park, best for kids 2-6, a bit limited for older kids (7+). Lack shade for parents and babies. Play area is well maintain.

Great place for kids

Nice park for the kids

Very nice place where you can have lunch - several coffee shops around the corner

I love this place. The play ground and basket ball. I swim in Texas and de used to swim in the pool here.I got into the Cool pool with the slow swimmers. There is a lot of people swimming and it is not what I am used to. So maybe my review is lackingWe swam in a circle in an extra wide lane. That meant having to look up about 2 or 3 times while swimming to make sure to not bump into others.Most people are Olympic Swimmers here and flouncing through the water doing the butterfly and breast stroke. They are professionals and it seems little focused on an old lady just getting some exercise by swimming laps. It is too much need to interact with all the other swimmers. I am spoiled maybe and prefer to just swim and not dodge duck and negotiate my next lap. Dare you take a brake between laps and disrupt the circle.The showers have a sign posted to only take a 2 minutes shower. There is no dry spot or place to set shampoo or towel except the floor. No dry spot and military style showers. For sure I am spoiled that I at least have a hook to hand a bag for my care products. Which is a comb, shampoo and conditioner. There is no soap in the shower at all. It is meant to just rinse and runThere is a salad spinner to tinge the water from your suit which is rare and super useful.There is no towel service.You must bring a deep hinged pad lock and the receiving parts of the locker are think and bulkier than most.Do t plan to actually shower here.Be ready for Wilde professional swimmers who dominate the lanes.When I looked at the schedule posted it showed the pool is open for lap swim at a certain time. I came 15 early to dress, shower off and get in. I tried the door and could see people swimming. It was locked. I thought maybe I didn’t push enough so I tried the door a second time. Then just stepped back and another person came to wait for the door. He told me it doesn’t open until the exact time even though it is midday.A woman came in her towel and wet and angrily stated it is their lunch time and they need lunch too ya know.I tried to explain I didn’t know and thought the door would be open prior to swim time. I apologized but it felt creepy.So to the employees take your lunch but maybe post that the doors are looked during lunch and post your lunch time so people have a clue. None of the sort was in the schedule posted. It is a simple thing to do to communicate your needs which the public is sure to understand.The facility is great and the people who work there are lovely. I however will be swimming in the bay next time.

It is a very well designed children playground in the middle of the busy city, just next to the SF library. All facilities are new, clean while creative allowing kids to mangle and play together.

Super fun super clean a must visit if in the city

Great public space, courts and kids playground work the SF skyline as a backdrop

Nice place for kids and family

Great playground for kids.

Friendy place with lots of activity!

Great places for friends to play for familys to come

Lots of things for the kids to do
