The best dog friendly neighborhoods in National City
48

City Center

Set on an island, the beautiful resort city of Coronado is located across the San Diego Bay, which makes it an excellent place for spending some quality time with your Fido. Coronado Beach Dog Park in the city center is a must-see! The leash-free beach for dogs is the most exciting spot for all visitors on the west part of the beach. It is the best place to splash around, fetch a Frisbee, catch a ball, or battle the incoming waves. The beach park is a dog park in all senses: it is open 24 hours for late or early visits, or anytime you want to take your pooch out for some mutts-needed playtime on the beach.

Mullinix Drive/Glorietta Boulevard

If you’re staying in Coronado for a day or two and feel like having an active time with your furry bud, this is the neighborhood you want to be in. The Bayshore Bikeway is one of the rail-trails in the city and is an outstanding place for going for a walk with the pooch at your side! Be sure your pup is on his leash and under your control at all times. Have a nice walk and enjoy the views of the city, or stop by to grab a snack at the local trail-side café. Unimpressed? Want more from your visit? Then Coronado Surfing Academy is the right place for you and you friend. You can take private lessons with an instructor on one of San Diego’s beaches. Your pup is sure to yelp in excitement! And when you’re exhausted after the training, enjoy a meal at the European-style café, Tartine. Or, share an outside picnic at Lil’ Piggy’s Bar-B-Q. Both establishments offer Fido-friendly outdoor seating.
24

Marina District

The Marina District welcomes dogs and their owners to enjoy all the local attractions, including the most prominent one, Seaport Village. Apart from being the central shopping spot, Seaport Village contains a number of Fido-friendly restaurants with views of the harbor. There’s also a large grassy area where Fido can play! Marina District has a great deal of dog-friendly cafes, such as Flour and Barley Café, which offers an open patio and water bowls for their canine visitors. Pier Café is a Fido-friendly, beachfront eatery with outdoor seating. For an adventure of epic proportions, you should consider visiting Seaforth Boat Rentals. Be sure that your friend suits the requirements: dogs up to 24” are welcome on power boats, and pups up to 27” can ride in the sailboats.
12

Gaslamp Quarter

Gaslamp Quarter is a historic neighborhood in downtown San Diego. It’s also home to Torrey Hills Dog Park. Fully fenced with large, grassy and gravel areas, it is a great place for off-leash activities. Drinking fountains are also available at the park. Since it’s near the city center, this neighborhood has all the necessary amenities for shopping and dining. You can chow down on burgers or ribs at the dog-friendly patio in Analog Bar. Or, if you are more into seafood and your furry friend is small-sized, you are welcome to share a meal at Osetra Watergrill’s outdoor tables. Getting from National City to San Diego will take less than 15 minutes by car.

Balboa Park

This oasis contains Japanese Friendship Garden, San Diego Zoo, and Balboa Park, which is a fantastic 1,000-acre green space for walking with your pup. There is a huge open space here where you can let your friend off his leash. If you want to explore the gardens or walking paths, your pal will need to be on a leash. If this area is a little too crowded for you, you can visit Nate’s Point Off-Leash Dog Park, located in the eastern region of Balboa Park. Nate’s Park is well-known as one of the best dog parks in San Diego, so you’ll definitely want to check it out. This area is completely fenced and well-equipped with amenities, including a double-entry gate, picnic tables, and drinking fountains. A good thing to remember about is that the park is open 24 hours a day!
