Important Facts
El Corazon Park encompasses more than 450 acres of publicly owned land located in the heart of our city between Mesa Drive and Oceanside Blvd and El Camino Real and Rancho Del Oro Drive. As our city grows, we will all benefit from convenient access to the wide-open natural spaces, hiking trails, and various amenities found at El Corazon. FELC is working to ensure they become a reality for Oceanside citizens of all ages.
Today, you will find 20 playing fields ideal for soccer tournaments and league events, a senior/community center, a new walking trail and other amenities that were spelled out in a Master Plan approved by voters more than 10 years ago.
The Master Plan (click here) takes you to the City of Oceanside website and the El Corazon Specific Plan. The file is quite large and takes a while to open, so please be patient.
Plans include nature trails alongside Garrison Creek, and the view trail, a new state-of-the-art Olympic-size Aquatic Complex, a hotel, mixed-use development and even a small residential community alongside the east end of the park.
