Arroyo Verde Park Inclusive Play Area is a destination-style accessible playground inside one of Ventura’s major parks. The 10,750-square-foot space was designed so children of varying abilities can play together, with a colorful smooth surface, swings, hammocks, balance beams, a sensory garden, music play areas, embankment climbers, and a motion-inclusive carousel. Gathering areas and landscaping make it easier for families to settle in for a longer visit. This is one of the clearest officially documented inclusive playgrounds on the Central Coast.
