What You Should Know Before Your Trip
Park Hours
While Mission Point Park is open from 4 am to 2 am every day, parking lot gates close at 10 pm. Fortunately, there is street parking within the area which is available for free. The park has a maximum capacity of 150 people, and if you'd like to plan a special event you must apply for the proper permit.
Bring Food but Not Alcohol
You're welcomed to bring your own food to the park, but be aware that alcohol is not permitted. Make sure any containers or bottles you bring are made out of plastic or aluminum and not glass, as glass containers are also not allowed within the confines of the park. There are picnic tables available, as well as restrooms and showers for your convenience.
Dogs in the Morning & Evenings Only
Dogs are permitted in the park, but only at certain times, which varies according to the season. From April to October, leashed dogs are allowed in the park before 9 am and after 6 pm. From November to March, leashed dogs can enter the park after 4 pm.
No Lifeguards
While swimming is permitted here, there is no active lifeguard on duty. As a result, those not confident in their swimming ability should proceed with caution. While the water at Mission Point is usually calm, parents should also be cautious when swimming with children, despite their level of ability.
