Sharp Park

Welcome to Sharp Park in Pacifica, California. This park was named for George Sharp, the man who previously owned the land. Today this park helps protect a diversity of wild habitats including costal wetlands, forests, and grasslands. One of the wild animals that can be found here includes the California red-legged frog which is the species of frog in the Mark Twain story "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County." During WWII, this park was used as an detention station for German, Italian, and Japanese citizens on their way to Internment Camps.
