Walk around the lake, yes there is a lake tucked back there. Whelan Lake, I was told the place once was a dairy farm owned by the Whelan family , and given to the city of Oceanside to keep as a bird santuary witch it was turned into when the farm was know longer producing dairy products, and bird watching was a hobby of the Mrs. Whelan. Today you are welcomed to visit but must call ahead, gate open from 9 am to 5 pm weekdays, weekend the gate closed, entrance is a city maintenance yard you may call to check, care taker will let you in, they stay on site so respect there space and time and enjoy.
Its a dirt road but maintained, a 1mile walk around the lake, with nice views, or tables to sit and enjoy the views. This peaceful place is worth a visit, its not just a walk in the park but a breath of fresh air enjoy
Beautiful and lots of birds
Beautiful lake and wonderful locale for bird watching.
