A very very good and a very very nice and a very very scenic park to walk or ride your bike around or just relax at and watch the birds but I recommend staying out of that park after dark.
Entertaining to watch up close small planes take off and land in this small fenced-in area, with benches and walking path (Courtenay Riverway Heritage Park Trail) surrounding it. Located beside the estuary with informative signage, plus a nearby cafe and marina at the north end (and car park), children's playground at the south end (car parking via Mansfield Dr.). The trail is flat and paved, so easy for walking albeit limited shade. Tiny coffee place nearby. You can walk to downtown from there (15-30 min.). Peaceful and relaxing area to also watch birds and walk leashed dogs.

Delightful arlirpark. Many facilities including aviation and lead free fuel with no ethanol.
Visitor parking across from the fuel pumps (bring your own tie down lines) for a minimal overnight fee.
Friendly coffee shop (D's) adjacent to the pumps. Club house behind the parking with facilities for flight planning. Hint for entry code beside the door.
Hotels only a five minute walk away and many restaurants within walking distance.
Great get away or refuelling/coffee stop.

Perfect fly-in destination! An excellent variety of restaurants, shopping and hotels within easy walking distance. The paved walking trail around the Airpark Estuary has many viewing spots for wildlife watching and kids love the Rotary Skypark. There’s something for everyone.

Just remember to "Duck"
Nice loop walk way around the strip and beyond. Wheelchair accessible. Take the camera. Get a cool shot of small planes landing or take off. Lots of waterfowl and seals swimming up the river. Bald Eagles.
