Mariner Park — Union City

Mariner Park, with two playgrounds separated by a 1/4 mile bike trial, is the perfect destination for peddles and play.

Most of the park’s features are found at the main site of the park on Dorado Dr and Regents Blvd. Along with the lower height of the structure yet lots of opportunities for play, this part of Mariner Park fun for kids big and small. The structure has two slides (a short tube and a spiral), ladders, steps, a sliding pole, crawling tunnel, peek out bubbles, two steering wheels and tic tac toe. Near by is the swing set with standard swings and tire swing. It is all in a soft rubber surface that could use some repair. As you can see in the photos, the large nearby trees offer a lot of shade. Near the play area is a half baskeball court along with other playground games like handball and foursquare. In this same space there are some workout machines. Also close by is a large picnic area with a lot of tables and bbq. Could be used as group or small scale pinicking. Let's not forget about the huge grass field!

Just a little ways down the paved trail is the smaller play area much more geared towards smaller kiddos. This play structure has one wide slide, a crawling tunnel, peek out bubbles, a small arch ladder and tic tac toe. Close by is a bucket only swing set.

Another enjoyable feature along this small paved trial of Mariner Park is the bridge where we saw ducks, turtles, and cats.
