Parks & Nature
Lovely seaside park with lots of quiet greenspace. Have brunch on Cook Street and stroll through the park afterwards down to Dallas Road and the waterfront. In the summer there is often music in the park or bring your tennis racquet to play on the three free courts.

Park your car at Clover Point and walk the long way downtown around Dallas Road past Ogden Point breakwater and the cruise ship docks. You can take in Fisherman's Wharf which is a bit touristy but there are working fishing boats there as well.
