Le Bard Park off Brookhurst at Indianapolis behind the Huntington Beach City School District offices is a 5 acre park adjacent to the Santa Ana River Bikeway trail. The park is operated through the City of Huntington Beach and includes two tennis courts, playground equipment and immaculate softball fields rented for little league play. Le Bard Park is the main field used for SeaView Little League games. Practices are held at various fields, depending on field allocations and coaches' schedules. There's a small clubhouse that's used for league signups.

Le Bard Park enjoys sits at the bottom of a hill or levee near the Santa Ana River, one of Southern California's longest rivers, stretching nearly 100 miles from the San Bernardino mountains to the ocean just a short distance from Le Bard Park.  As shown in the photo above (right), the river sometimes has very little water by the time it reaches the Pacific Ocean on the border of Huntington Beach and Newport Beach.

The pedestrian and bicycle bridge that spans the river at Le Bard Park connects to several beautiful parks in Costa Mesa, Talbert Regional Park, Vista Park and Fairview Park. For hiking and exploring, a trip to Le Bard and walk across the bridge into Costa Mesa is a real treat. Brookhurst, Hamilton, Magnolia and Adams are the major streets near Le Bard Park.
