If you're in to old roller coasters and boardwalk fun, then you should check out Belmont Park. It's been around for generations and has been remodeled and upgraded throughout the years. The only "real" attraction is the roller coaster and the fact that it's so close to the water. This is a great place to come with your family. Not only to walk along the beach but to ride the roller coaster.
Parking can be a hassle during weekends and holidays. Everyone parks for the beach parking and not necessarily the coaster.

the roller coaster really doesn't do it for me, plus it is expensive to ride. The shops in the area are okay, but still overpriced due to the tourist trap aspect to the area. Good luck finding any parking near by due to the crowed at the beach and the other shops/restaurants in the area. If you're not from SD I could see how this could be amusing.

The amusent park at belmont park is expensive for the rides that you get. Some of the rides that are there change from time to time and they are not the bg fun rides worth three or four dollars per ride they are silly rides that are overpriced. They also have an arcade type room that is over priced once again. The food on the boardwalk at belmontpark is overpriced too. Parking is free, but since it is next to a beach, finding parking can be difficult at peak times (summers, evenings and weekends). I think there are other places that are a better value.

The Big Dipper at Belmont Park is certainly not a World Class Roller Coaster, but it is world Famous (it was featured on the intro to MTV's Summer Beach house when they filmed it in the summer of 2000 at Mission Bay). It's a fairly standard wooden coaster that costs about $4 per ride. Located at Belmont Park there is no admission to this park so check out the coaster before you get on.

All you roller coaster aficionados already know this. While the ride is not long it is worth it. If you have never ridden a wood coaster you have to give it a shot, it's not just the ups and downs. It's the entire experience, the wood shaking, the noise...and the fear of it falling all apart. Well this coaster is very safe for all. There are amazing views from the top of the coaster; you can see all of mission and pacific beach. Fun time for all!

Belmont Park offers only one rollercoaster - but it is a great one. The "Giant Dipper" is an awsome rollercoaster that delivers a punch for how old it is. Belmont Park also has many other smaller rides, but everything there is pay-per-ride. The only downside to this park is that it can cost quite a lot if you want to ride over and over.

Belmont park is like a modern version of the old-time beach boardwalk. They have an arcade where you can win prizes for getting tickets, a big landmark vintage rollercoaster, and tons of places to eat. They just opened the Flowrider which is like a wave pool for surfriders. Basically it is a neverending surf tube that you can surf until you wipe out. Also they have the Plunge which is a large indoor heated pool. During the summer they screen movies and you can be in the pool and watch them on the screen. Great for kids.

Belmont Park roller coaster is a great ride. Short like every other ride out there. Lines are usually not long unless it is during the weekend. During the weekend, you can expect to wait in line. Not that expensive either. It is a pretty feature that highlights our beach. It brings great people together.

Belmont Park is a great place to hang out in the summer. They have it all - food, rides, games and entertainment. It is fun to hang out in a boardwalk type atmosphere, something you don't get a lot of in California. First thing you have to do is ride the Giant Dipper Rollercoaster. Other fun things to do are ride bumper cars, play in the arcade and swim at the indoor heated pool. And when you get hungry, check out Canes or the Windandsea Bar. Canes also has great live music!

This roller coaster is old but good. It is right near the water and has a great view at the top. They keep this coaster up to date so no worrying about damage from age. It is fun and a tradition in our family to take everyone in the summer while in our suits to ride it before we get in the water. I recommed it to anyone visiting San Diego.
