Pearsall Water-Skate Park

"This playground was great for my 9 and 10 year old. We walked up the hill, had lunch at a picnic table, and watched a plane take off. We walked down to the second park, which is more of an obstacle course, but they still had fun with it. Unfortunately, it is very popular, so it was packed. We will try a different time of day to go next time."

"All residents and visitors to San Antonio should check out Pearsall Park! There’s so much to see and do there. There’s exercise equipment and a ninja course on the north side of the park, while on the south side there is a large concrete skatepark and multiple basketball courts. The center of the park has a multi-level jungle gym type structure with a big splash/spray pad below. The splash pad is popular of course because so many people and kids want to beat the south Texas heat. But for anyone interested in skateboarding, the concrete skatepark is a marvel. There are banks, transitions, A-frames, ledges, spines, and a fairly large bowl section. I’ve been taking my kids to this park for 5 years and they always have a blast. I see many people walking, running, and exercising at Pearsall and it always inspires me. The park is also surrounded by some high ground which you can hike up and enjoy some decent views. The only reason i didn’t give it a full 5 star review is because the bathrooms could be better maintained and it could use more shade in some key areas. But overall, this park is awesome."

"Pearsall Skatepark in west San Antonio is the best in San Antonio (so far). It has a nice variety of transition and street and clean lines. The shade structures above common start points are also a really cool design feature. Great place to skate in San Antonio!"

"Oh definitely the best skatepark around the are. If you have kids that don’t skate there’s plenty to do around, bike trails, walking trails, basketball courts, water parks, etc. The skatepark has so many obstacles and the concrete is so much. You got a bowl corner, slants to ledges, mini quarters, rails, a frame rails, euro step, hubbas everywhere, handrails, ledges everywhere. Just everything, lots of banks, usually there’s someone with a ice cream truck selling drinks near. The locals were super cool, very smooth group and there’s people who actually skate that comes to this park. It was super fun."

"It was the 1st time me and my grandkids had gone and we all had a great time!! I let them play at the playground, then we went for a long walk up on the hill which was good for me and best most relaxing part was the water pad!! I took my lounge chair and sat in the shade watching my grandkids everywhere between playground and water pad. I felt relaxed because they were having a blast and it was safe for all the kids. There were normal people, no trouble out here, absolutely no bad vibes!!"
