Where a card says no price or no hours listed, the venue does not publish it. We would rather leave the gap than fill it with a guess. Prices come from each venue's own website, and we publish one only when the figure appears on the page we took it from. Tell us if we are missing one you know.
Common questions about splash pads in San Francisco
How many splash pads are there in San Francisco?
We list 4 splash pads within 57 miles of San Francisco, CA. Every one is a published listing with an address we checked.
Which splash pads in San Francisco publish their prices?
1 of the 4 here do, and each price was checked word for word against the venue's own page before we published it. The rest do not publish one, so their card says no price listed rather than carrying a guess.
Are any splash pads in San Francisco free?
Yes. One place gets you in free: Mission Playground Splash Pad.
Which splash pads in San Francisco suit a toddler?
3 of them list an age range starting at two or under. Check the age line on each card, because a place that suits a six-year-old does not always suit a two-year-old.
How did Mini Navigators choose these splash pads?
We list every one we have within 57 miles of the center of San Francisco. Each is a published place with an address we geocoded and checked, and the business can claim its listing to keep the hours and prices current.
Do adults have to pay?
It varies more than you would expect, from free to full price, and it changes the cost of a visit by a lot when there are two of you. The price on each card is what it costs to get a child in. 1 of the 4 on this page publishes a price at all, so call ahead about the adult rate before you rely on it.
Do I need to book ahead?
No. They are free and open in season; check the operating dates, which are short. Where a venue publishes a booking page, the listing links straight to it.
What should I bring?
Swimwear, a towel, a change of clothes and water shoes. The surface gets hot. Whatever else you need is in the notes beside the listings above.
What else is there to do with kids in San Francisco?
San Francisco has 13 categories of kid-friendly places on Mini Navigators, from playgrounds and museums to splash pads and zoos. The San Francisco hub lists all of them.
