What we’re about
Our vision is for lower Rose Creek to be an open space park providing recreational and learning opportunities and a clean, healthy, aesthetically pleasing environment for residents, visitors, businesses, and native plants and animals, while serving as an accessible link for bicyclists and pedestrians to move between Rose Canyon Park, Marian Bear Park, Mission Bay Park, and surrounding communities. We invite everyone to help us make the dream a reality by habitat restoration, community cleanups, and nature walks. For more information, visit our website.

See all- Guided Bird Walk (FREE)Mission Bay High School, San Diego, CA
ROSE CREEK is a treasure in Pacific Beach, popular with Bikers on the East side, a quiet, shaded walking path on the West side. Once a month, on Saturday, Friends of Rose Creek lead a Guided Bird Walk along the Mud Flats, winding Estuary and into the Riparian area full of trees and song birds.
Recently we’ve seen baby ducks, seagulls and Ospreys chicks. More unusual sightings; Northern Shoveler, Red Knot, and Black-headed Grosbeak.
Karin will be our guide this month. Meet at Mission Bay High School. FACULTY PARKING Lot along Rose Creek, off Grand Ave. Unfortunately, Kyle will not be joining the walk this month.
DO NOT TURN ON LEE STREET. The parking lot is at the east end of campus on Grand Avenue overlooking the creek. There is an unlocked gate on the parking lot.
It may be chilly out so be prepared for coolness as the sun sets.
