## The list

1. [Ocean View Park](https://ourplayday.com/places/ocean-view-park-half-moon-bay) (playground, Half Moon Bay). Half Moon Bay's inclusive playground with three separate structures sized by age group - toddlers, little kids and big kids each get their own zone. Restrooms and picnic areas on site.
2. [Oak Avenue Park](https://ourplayday.com/places/oak-avenue-park-half-moon-bay) (playground, Half Moon Bay). A toddler-scaled climbing playground: elevated crawl tunnel, small rock wall, gentle cork surfacing. No swings by design - every piece builds climbing skills. A few blocks from Half Moon Bay's Main Street cafes.
3. [Arata's Pumpkin Farm](https://ourplayday.com/places/aratas-pumpkin-farm) (attraction, Half Moon Bay). Established in 1932, and the patch for kids who want a challenge: a two-acre hay maze, a cornfield, a haunted barn, plus a train, pony rides and a petting zoo for the ones who don't. Weekday visits skip the parking charge.
4. [Farmer John's Pumpkin Farm](https://ourplayday.com/places/farmer-johns-pumpkin-farm) (attraction, Half Moon Bay). The quiet, pumpkin-first stop: rows of every variety from tiny gourds to 250-pound Atlantics, a hay ride out to the field, and a vintage tractor for photos. No rides, no crowds, dogs welcome.
5. [Pillar Point Harbor Beach](https://ourplayday.com/places/pillar-point-harbor-beach-half-moon-bay) (beach, Half Moon Bay). Your kid can build in sheltered harbor sand and watch boats from the beach path.
6. [Andreotti Family Farms](https://ourplayday.com/places/andreotti-family-farms) (attraction, Half Moon Bay). A working farm above the bluffs, with u-pick pumpkins next to Northern California's only u-pick sunflower field and a corn maze cut fresh every year. Bring boots: the rows are dirt, not asphalt.
7. [Andreotti Family Farms Pumpkin Patch and Sunflower Field](https://ourplayday.com/places/andreotti-family-farms-pumpkin-patch-and-sunflower-field-half-moon-bay) (attraction, Half Moon Bay). Your kid can pick sunflowers and pumpkins and wander the fall farm setting.
8. [Francis Beach at Half Moon Bay State Beach](https://ourplayday.com/places/francis-beach-at-half-moon-bay-state-beach-half-moon-bay) (beach, Half Moon Bay). Your kid can build sandcastles near a ramped beach access and visit the small nature displays when the weekend visitor center is staffed.
9. [Lemos Farm](https://ourplayday.com/places/lemos-farm-half-moon-bay) (attraction, Half Moon Bay). A family farm on Highway 92 since 1942, with pony rides, a train, a hay ride and a petting zoo alongside the pumpkin patch. Buy tickets online before you go: walk-ins can be turned away on a busy fall weekend.
10. [Venice Beach at Half Moon Bay State Beach](https://ourplayday.com/places/venice-beach-at-half-moon-bay-state-beach-half-moon-bay) (beach, Half Moon Bay). Your kid can play in the wide sand and look for a seasonal creek from a safe distance from the surf.

## About this list

Every place here is a listing on Play Day, and a place is listed only when something positive is known about it for kids. Each listing carries the kid facts (high chairs, changing tables, kids' menus, wheelchair access) with the source and month of each. A list needs at least three places to exist.
