With all of the recreation, attractions and hotels Redwood City has to offer, it may just be the perfect place to plan your next getaway.

Since California is known for its spectacular climate, outdoor recreation is big in Redwood City. One of the local favorites is Maddux Park. This outdoor park features a perimeter safety fence and is known for its cleanliness. It has several play spaces for children and dogs are allowed on leashes. There is also the Andrew Spinas Park. This park features monkey bars, spring-mounted animals and a jungle gym and slide for the kids, but it also features some grown-up activities as well. Basketball courts, tennis courts, shade trees and picnic tables make this the perfect park for the entire family.

If you are in the market for family fun, check out the Malibu Grand Prix. This family entertainment center features a go-kart track, batting cages and miniature golf courses. Even adults are drawn to the game room, which features all sorts of giant arcades. For some fun on the water, the bumper boats feature on-board water cannons and safe collision action. Don't forget the Grand Prix, the recreation center's namesake attraction. This high-powered, custom-built Indy style-racing track snakes around half a mile, allowing the racecars to get up to blazing speeds. Two-seater cars are available so parents can take the younger kids for their first thrill ride. The park frequently has specials and promotions and birthday parties are available.

Redwood City is known for its outstanding parks and recreation and it boasts thirty different parks from the small scale to large forty-acre parks. Many are dog and skate friendly.

Pool hours are from sunrise to sunset and parking is on a first come, first served basis.

Dining in Redwood City is also family-friendly. Options include the typical fast food fare but small business owners operate bistros, cafés and coffee shops, so visit the local establishments while you are there.
