El Parque de la Bandera (The Flag Park), Ensenada
The Flag Park is one of the city's most iconic public spaces, known for its massive Mexican flag that proudly waves above the coastline. Located right along the waterfront, the park offers sweeping views of the harbor and the Pacific Ocean, making it a favorite for both locals and tourists. With clean walkways, well-kept gardens, and plenty of benches, it’s a great place to relax, take a walk, or simply sit and enjoy the view. The park also serves as a gathering spot for community events, cultural festivals, and street vendors selling snacks and crafts.
Families especially love the children's play area and the popular dancing fountain show, which is even more spectacular at night when it’s lit up with colorful lights. Visitors can check schedules to catch the show, and on weekends or holidays, local craft fairs and music performances often add extra charm to the experience. The restrooms are clean, the atmosphere is welcoming, and there’s plenty of space for everyone—from couples strolling hand-in-hand to kids running across the lawn.
Adjacent to Flag Park is the Window to the Sea - a scenic boardwalk that stretches along the bay. Starting near the Black Seafood Market and ending at the park, this short path offers stunning views, especially at sunrise and sunset. It's a great place to spot marine wildlife or even book a boat ride to see whales up close.
