Lomita Park

This is our go to playground. My 18 month old really enjoys it! There is a lot of equipment good for different ages and plenty of small slides for the little ones.
I get a little concerned about the rubber material that is used on the ground. I’m sure it is full of chemicals and it makes me a little nervous so I always make sure my toddling toddler wears pants and then wipe him down with wipes after he plays. Also wish police would monitor better. There is often groups of kids during school hours who seem to be ditching school hanging out with non kid friendly language and music. But I’m sure this happens at most parks

This is a surprisingly clean, cute little park with plenty of open grass area for running around, a few sports fields (baseball, soccer), and tennis courts. The playground has separate equipment for both toddlers and larger kids. I’m not sure if they recently renovated but this is not a sandy playground as previous posters mentioned. It’s on that recycled, compacted (not loose) rubber flooring. Kind of stinks. Some of the slides have been boarded up. I hope they fix it soon instead of following Wilson Park’s example and keeping the slide boarded up and looking uncared for (ghetto) indefinitely. Otherwise, it’s a nice little park.

We live in Torrance and still drive our kids to Lomita Park where we have had them in sports for the past couple years. All the young coaches are amazing with the kids! Our daughter in particular has a disability and we couldn’t ask for better inclusion! We are especially bias to coach Trevor. He is just thee BEST! Would highly recommend this park if your looking for great coaches and a family oriented atmosphere.

Great for night time tennis and basketball since they have a good lighting system. And always groups of people to get some games going.

This is a great little park right down the street from my gym Brood 9 Martial arts. We love running from the gym down there to run sprints on the grass and other activities during our Obstacle Course Race Training. The playground is pretty well kept and even great for us to use for ring pull ups, monkey bars and more. They have a nice area that is around it for workouts and stretching which is great to see in the park. They get pretty packed with birthdays/​kid parties on the weekends but if you go early enough it’s not too bad. The Tennis Courts look really nice and well kept as well, and have a really nice baseball field. Totally love heading down there to change up the training from our normal Martial Arts and Fitness.

I love this park! I haven’t explored any part of the park except the tennis courts, but I do know they have basketball courts, a baseball field, and soccer field. There’s also a playground of the kids. I love coming here to play tennis because it’s not as busy as Wilson Park. There’s usually no one playing and if there is, the wait isn’t very long. I was going to give it 5 stars, but minus 1 star for not allowing dogs! I don’t get why parks don’t allow dogs –_​_​_​–

I have been to this park quite a few times because my husband played basketball at the indoor court. I’ve also watched a couple of soccer games here. There’s a playground for the kids and outdoor bball courts.

It”s not the most beautiful park in the South Bay, but it’s still a good place for an afternoon workout. The park is well maintained, with clean bathrooms and picnic areas. The baseball fields and other grass areas are also well cared for.
There are also basketball and tennis courts available, without fees (Eddie Howland, Manhatten Beach).
Negatives: The basketball and tennis courts are flooded after rains. Also, the Lomita City Yard is adjacent to the park, so it’s sometimes noisy.

We love Lomita park. Classes are not expensive and the park is clean. There are different age play structures for the kids to enjoy. Lots of picnic tables and benches to relax. Tennis courts, base ball field and lots of grass to run around on.

Nothing special but it’s a great place for my brother and his football team to practice at! The practice area is a flat grassy surface and big enough for other teams to practice at!
The park (Walnut side) has a mini baseball field, an area for little kids (such as swings and slides) and a little picnic area, where adults can sit and relax, while they watch their youngens play!
The park is not crowed at all! I’ve been here multiple times and every time I come, the adults/​kids are friendly, everybody usually minds their own business! Oohh and did I mention this park is very clean!!! (that’s always a plus!!)
The park is near Sur La Brea park, so just in case if you are looking for hills and other stuff!

This review is for their basketball courts.
I hate this park but my friends like it so I have no choice. They have crappy lighting at night, the ground is slick, and the baskets are too far apart to have a casual full-​court game. I will continue to go here, but I like Lago Seco the best.

It’s not the most attractive park, meaning there are no hills & not a ton of shade trees, but Lomita more than makes up for this with sports facilities… not to mention that the area is meticulously maintained.
I gave a shout to Lomita Park’s bathroom in a review of a different park, haha… I had to drive to Lomita to use the potty because the other park was not clean and had no tp. Even on a Sunday, Lomita Park’s potty was clean and well-​stocked with tp, seat covers, and even paper hand towels.
Lomita Park is locked up at night, and according to the sign you gotta be out by 10pm. Park opens at 9am.
There’s a lighted ball field (no hardball). The lighted soccer field (Beverly Belba Field) has its own parking lot, and even a scoreboard & bleachers. The 2 tennis courts are lighted, too.
There’s a gym that houses basketball courts in addition to the one outdoors.
People were setting up for a party in a section of the large community building on the day I was there. I wished I could be invited, ’cause I was starving! The food looked so good…
There’s a large, attractive, sandy kiddie playground & picnic areas.
No dogs allowed in the park.
Plenty of parking, either in the lot or on surrounding residential streets, all free.
The most interesting thing I saw at Lomita Park was the fitness equipment, which was the best I’ve seen at any park. I got photos of everything, 27 pics in all.
I love how locals hang out in their neighborhood parks. Families having parties, parents playing sports with their kids, people just chillin’ on a free afternoon. Parks rock, there is no doubt. Taxpayers’ money put to good use.
