Paws & Longevity: Dog Walk at Fiesta Island
âA morning walk with four-legged friends, plus easy conversations about living well
âđ Sunday, Dec 6, 2026
âđ 9:00 am to 10:15 am
âđ Fiesta Island Off-Leash Dog Area, Fiesta Island Rd, San Diego, CA 92109 (meet at the entrance to the fenced off-leash area, by the dog bag station)
âđïž Free
âJoin Longevity San Diego at Fiesta Island, one of the largest off-leash dog areas in the country, for a relaxed walk along Mission Bay and casual chats about longevity.
âWhat is this about? Dog owners walk more, get outside more, and tend to talk to more strangers, and all three of those are good for healthspan. This is a low-key morning walk around the island. While the pups play, we'll talk about the everyday habits that help both humans and dogs live longer, healthier lives: daily movement, time outdoors, routine, and connection.
âNo dog? No problem! You don't need a dog to join. Come for the walk, the fresh air, and the company. Plenty of dogs will be happy to say hi.
âBringing a dog? Your pup is very welcome, as long as they are friendly with both people and other dogs. Please keep them under voice control (or on a leash if they're still learning), and leave them at home if they're reactive, unwell, or not yet fully vaccinated.
