About
Booth District Park in Honolulu's Nuuanu-Punchbowl neighborhood is one of the city's district-level parks — a step up from neighborhood playgrounds in terms of facilities and programming. The park serves the residential community around Punchbowl Crater and downtown Honolulu with playground equipment, sports courts, and open grass areas.
With 310 Google reviews averaging 4.4 stars, this is a park that earns sustained positive feedback from regular users — a reliable indicator of consistently maintained facilities and a welcoming community atmosphere. District parks in Honolulu's system typically have more comprehensive features than neighborhood parks, including multiple sports facilities and programmed community events.
For traveling families, the park's Nuuanu-Punchbowl location makes it a useful stop if you're already visiting the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific (Punchbowl Crater) — one of Honolulu's most significant historical sites and a meaningful destination for families with school-age kids learning about World War II history. Pairing a history lesson at Punchbowl with outdoor play at Booth Park makes for a balanced morning outing.
The park is open 5AM-10PM daily, giving families flexibility for early morning or post-dinner outdoor time.
