HOURS AND ADMISSION

Parking & Vehicle Entrance Fee

The vehicle entrance fee for parking in Coyote Point Recreation Area is $6 per car. There is an electronic pay station that accepts credit cards and cash (does not give change). Members receive free entrance and parking while visiting CuriOdyssey when they present a current membership card and valid parking pass to the ranger at the gatehouse, and then display the parking pass on their dashboard. This member benefit is valid only during CuriOdyssey's open hours.

Please visit the County of San Mateo website for Vehicle Entry Waiver information.

Accessible Parking

If your vehicle displays a Disabled Person Parking Placard or Plate, you may park in the marked accessible parking places closest to the CuriOdyssey entrance. You are also welcome to park in the 10-minute parking, if all accessible parking spaces are occupied. Also, per the Coyote Point Recreation Area website, "Vehicle entry fees are waived for park visitors whose vehicles display a handicap placard or license plate." This applies every day.
