El Camino Real Park

Pickleball in Orange, CA is easy to access at El Camino Real Park, where 2 outdoor hard courts are open to the public free of charge, seven days a week from 5:00 AM to 11:00 PM. The courts are striped over existing tennis courts, which means the net sits a bit higher than regulation pickleball height — worth keeping in mind before you arrive. Lights are available for evening sessions, and restrooms and water are on-site. Rated 4.4 stars across more than 1,272 reviews, the park draws a wide range of visitors. Players note the multi-sport environment, with baseball fields, basketball, and handball courts sharing the grounds alongside picnic areas and playgrounds, making it a practical stop for families fitting pickleball into a broader outing.
