Squarena

Squarena in Solana Beach occupies a specific niche in the San Diego indoor activity landscape: a trampoline-based dodgeball venue that combines the competitive energy of organized team sport with the bouncing chaos of a trampoline park.

The signature experience is exactly what it sounds like — teams play dodgeball on a trampoline surface, which means evasion is harder, throws are more dramatic, and the inevitable hits are softer than they would be on a standard court. Kids who find standard dodgeball too easy or too slow consistently report that the trampoline version feels genuinely challenging and more exciting.

The format works best for kids old enough to understand and follow organized game rules — roughly age 5 and up. Below that age, the concept of 'team' and 'out' breaks down. The older end of the range extends through teens who find competitive formats consistently more engaging than open-jump bouncing.

Squarena is a smaller, more focused facility than the large-scale trampoline parks in the county. This is either a benefit or a limitation depending on what you're looking for: less overwhelming and more game-focused, but fewer total activity options for kids who want variety.

The Solana Beach location gives North County coastal families — those staying near or living in Del Mar, Encinitas, Carlsbad, or Solana Beach itself — a convenient alternative to driving south or inland for indoor trampoline activity. Solana Beach's restaurant scene nearby is solid for post-session meals.
