My family and I love going to the sand dunes a few minutes down the road from the park. They are free. It’s very secluded and peaceful with beautiful views of the sunset. Pack a lunch.

This place is good when you want a lighter option. You can also have made to order fresh pressed juices and frozen yogurt parfaits. I get the crescent chicken sandwich with a poblano pepper soup and “agua de Jamaica” which is a drink made from the hibiscus flower.

Great place for breakfast tacos and to buy fresh flour tortillas to-go. They are very popular so don’t expect speedy service, especially in the drive through.
