Lago Seco Park — Attraction in Torrance

Very nice family-friendly park that was close to our son's place in Torrance. Great place to take a walk after dusk, when it is much quieter. Good to watch boys and girls practising basketball and playing friendly games. Swings and slides for kids with rubber mat spread around to avoid any injuries to kids. Fixed benches and tables to sit and chit-chat with a packet of chips or peanuts. Well lit during late evenings and hence feels secure to walk around. Nice green trees, creepers and lovely flowers too to pep up your mood. Lot of space to play Frisbee, to walk the dogs. Nice community garden where a variety of vegetables are grown and well protected by fencing. Lot of cycling activity by kids and youngsters. For the elderly, it is a heaven to walk around without traffic snarls, in the quiet...

I absolutely love this park! The most active times for this park on weekdays are between 7am - 9am, and 5pm - sunset. If you come here from 11am - 2pm, you may experience high UV (bring a hat!), but it’s also low activity and the clear open fields can be a slice of zen.

The weekends are sporadic with activity; when there are little league games, basketball games, kids playground, and birthday parties (tables can be reserved online). The parking lot is nearly always full during these times, however, there is always street parking available to accommodate for large gatherings.

Many dog owners frequent this area and even meet up on a weekly-basis. While most dogs are friendly, I would advise being aware of your surroundings as I’ve had a few instances of off-leash dogs running up to us...

I took my 4 year old here after an appointment, and he really enjoyed it. The other parents and nannies were all nice as we chatted while watching the kids play. My son was the oldest, but he got along great with the younger kids. The park is a large size, so we didn't get to explore since my son was only interested in the playground. There's lots of street parking. It's in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It's kind of like a hidden gem if you're not from around the area. We had a great time! I was not disappointed! Next time I'm in that area with my kids, we'll definitely stop by again. Hopefully, we'll get to see the rest...
