Why should you visit the Park?
A unique, fun and affordable way to spend a few hours exploring the traditional attractions of a natural amusement park and/or enjoying some shade while having a snack.
On one side of the park you have the Costera and the beach and on the other side you have the city where there are many shops.
You can walk or jog inside the park and then you can go for a little swim in the ocean.
Tip:
Get on the iguana! Very few know that part of the park and the climbing is exhausting, but the view of the bay is excellent, and the place itself is really nice.
