Tucked into the northwest corner of Dana Basin at 1400 Dana Landing Rd in the 92109 ZIP code, Sunset Point Park is a bayfront retreat within Mission Bay Park that earns its name every evening. The park sits adjacent to The Dana on Mission Bay hotel and just across the water from SeaWorld San Diego, giving visitors unobstructed westward views that light up during golden hour. Other waterfront parks along the same stretch of bay, such as Ventura Cove Park, are connected by the paved Mission Bay trail that loops nearly 14 miles around the shoreline. A sandy shoreline separated from the water by a protective rock wall makes Sunset Point better suited for picnicking and strolling than swimming, though the calm bay waters nearby remain accessible for kayaking, canoeing, and paddleboarding. Fire rings scattered along the beach allow evening bonfires under the stars, a tradition that draws locals year-round. Picnic tables, barbecue grills, and restrooms near the parking lot round out the amenities. Dogs are permitted on leash before 9:00 a.m. and after 6:00 p.m. from April through October, with adjusted hours in the cooler months. The Dana Landing marina next door provides boat docking and rental facilities for those looking to get out on the water. After watching the sun drop behind the horizon, visitors can walk to Belmont Park and its historic Giant Dipper roller coaster on the ocean side of the peninsula. Free parking is available in the lot off Dana Landing Road, though spaces fill quickly on summer weekends.
