The actual park is just southwest of Lover's Point. Besides a green area with benches there is a rocky outcropping for careful climbing and good views

First, I will start with the fact there was a decent parking lot right there. That isn’t always the case around these parts. As it was December when we were there, it was almost empty. There is a little park-like spot here and you can sit, look at the ocean, the coast and just relax as the breeze washes over you., While the view is not spectacularly dramatic, it is sweeping. Restful, actually. There is at least one restaurant, a cafe, a burger place and more to have a meal. Or you can bring some food and munch on the bench. A handful of trees provide some shade. There are a couple of small beaches on the right side, there. One of them had the waves lapping over almost the entire beach. You can even just bring a book and again feel the breeze and the smell of the ocean. There’s a hotel, maybe two right by the Park, which is a reasonable location to spend a night. How long you stay depends on you.

We ran a 5K that started from this area. It was beautiful. We were able to spot otters so that was a cute bonus.

I was super excited to see the 'Magic Carpet' blooms along the coastline in Pacific Grove California , located at the tip of the Monterey Peninsula. Formally known as drosanthemum floribundum; the magenta ice plant comes in a wide range of shades and hues, from pale lavender to bright magenta to rich purple. You can catch the full bloom of this magnificent carpet of flower for a very short period of time during April-May. The best patches are found between Lovers Point and Asilomar State Beach along Ocean View Boulevard.

Very Nice bluff top trail along the Bayfront. Multiuse with paved gently graded trail for bikes parallel to gravel for walking. Views are wonderful. Excellent for whale watching.

Beautiful place! I loved it! Very calm setting but with enough people there. You may rent kayaks. Families, pet friendly, and bike friendly. Families brought blankets and sand toys for their kids. There is a long paved pathway to walk and gaze at the ocean. There are some rocks that you're able to climb to view the ocean and take gorgeous photos. Local small coffee shops, cafes, and gas stations (currently $4.80/gal or so).

Lovers Point Park at the Pacific Grove is a nice place to visit, as you get a beautiful view of the Ocean and sun set. Walking along the peaceful beach is a pleasure. The Park is a nature's marvel as you watch the beauty of the rocks, sand, water and vegetation. We enjoyed our visit.

This is a beautiful park. Grassy patch in front of the ocean. You got lots to see the tide pools, boulders, grassy area. There is a snack place called the grill if you want a bite to eat. You can also find a place to rent bikes. There is a small white sand beach and tide pools, great to enjoy and relax. It is really beautiful place. Beautiful ocean view from every angle. Great place o take a stroll, rent a bike and cruise around, relax at the small beach or the park. Adults and kids would enjoy this park.

Such a tranquil and beautiful beach. We happened to come in March so it was a little cold. We still enjoyed the beautiful Ocean and spectacular views.

If you are visiting Lovers Point, be certain to take advantage of the park. It's a lovely spot with some nice sculptures and benches that make it most enjoyable. It would be a great spot for a picnic lunch or bring your coffee to just kick back.

Is the pool heated?

I do not believe the pool is heated. It is pretty new as they had a campaign to completely re-do it a few years ago. Now it is more of a smaller kids pool than a pool for adults. Has a ramp going down to enter the water.

First come basis as far as I could tell. Only a bike rental area nearby. No other concession area to sign up for them.
