Located right along the cable car line, Joe DiMaggio Park is a perfect addition to a San Fransisco day.

A great playground and recreation area, Joe DiMaggio Park and Pool are within walking distance of Fisherman’s Wharf. Along with the shiny play structure and exciting playground elements, this park has a full and two half basketball courts, tennis courts, volleyball courts, four square, bocce ball courts, an indoor swimming pool, and a library. It truly has tons of fun things to do!

The play area is completely gated in inside the already gated in park (double security for the runners ). There is a huge climbing dome with a sideless bottomless slide, a climbing merry-go-round, a spinning cup, bucket swings, a swinging meets teeter-totter (so much fun!), and a mosaic fish sculpture that you can climb in and on.

The play structure is on a higher level of the play area and is accessible by a ramp or amphitheater-style steps has two slides (a spiral and a double), steps, ladders, a sliding pole, a bridge, activities, a small and climbing wall. The double slide is long and goes from the structure through the amphitheater-style steps to the lower level of the playground. Nearly all of the flooring at this park is astroturf.

There are bathrooms available and street parking.  It's a close walk from the Fisherman's Wharf and can easily fill up an hour or two of your day.  The park was loaded with children of all ages and can also be a great place to bring bikes and scooters!
