So far I have yet to find a place that my lab, Stella, likes more than Fiesta Island. Located right off the 5 freeway in Mission Bay, Fiesta Island has a ton of open space for dog walking and playing fetch in the water. Many bikers and joggers use the main road to exercise. There are also certain areas for PCWs (personal water crafts) to ride, and I often see wind surfers and kayaks too. Launching such items is very easy because all you have to do is drive right down to the water and plop in whatever adventure toy you brought and go for it. Note that this is not a good place for swimming. =)
The far West side of the island is home to a water ski jump that the local colleges use for water ski tournaments. Luckily, every time I have visited it has been very pleasant and not too crowded.
Entrance to Fiesta Island is free and closes nightly at 10:00pm. To visit the official website, please got to http://www.sandiego.gov/parkandrecreation/parks/missionbay/fiestaisland.shtml
DIRECTIONS: From the I-5 Exit Sea World Drive (SW), Right at E. Mission Bay Drive, & Left into Fiesta Island.
