Recreation
Whether it’s a day at the beach, a day in the mountains or a day in Hollywood, Visalia’s central location makes it easy to get the most out of the abundance of recreational opportunities that California provides.

Visalia serves as the gateway to top-notch recreational activities, from hiking to whitewater rafting to antiquing, fine dining or camping in Sequoia-Kings Canyon National Parks.

Visalia is also home to a thriving arts community, drawing live musical acts to its burgeoning downtown, and the Visalia Rawhide, a high-A class affiliate of the Arizona Diamondbacks.

With martial arts, fine arts, live theater, dance and gymnastics, cultural festivals and the new River Way Regional Sports Park – Visalia offers something for everyone, all year round.
