Excellent park to visit the Boca inlet and beach. One of the calmer beaches on a windy day because of the jetty. Great for fishing, too. Great park if you dont want crowds. Parking is ample at $3 p/hour on weekdays and $4 p/hour on weekends. Has a shelter, BBQ areas, multiple small playgrounds, lots of shaded areas when really hot out and restrooms. This is a county park so the Boca resident sticker will not work for parking. Personally one of my favorite Boca beach parks because it is never crowded. Also, you can walk all the way down to Deerfield Beach if you are up for it. ***the day we were there a storm was rolling in... Clearly not a calm day***

Nice park - that’s why I left 1 extra star BUT the parking situation is horrible. The police officer that guards the entrance doesn’t allow cars to come in saying that they don’t allow 100% occupancy. Why? It’s weekend. Even though the cars are exiting the parking lot (5 to be exact so far...) - we are still not allowed to enter. Needs management improvement.

How did this place even get good reviews? The truth is, this beach is loaded with washed up seaweed and gnats on the seaweed. You see boats fly thru on the north side, and it smells, and is just gross... Clean up your beach, Boca. These reviews HAVE to be from the people living right there in condos. Honestly, dont bring your family to this mess. Not worth it. Other beaches are prettier, closer to the parking area, and much nicer.

This is definitely for the locals. Fishing, surfing and the local community gathers in the adjacent park by the Inlet.

Great park for snorkeling and family activities. Away from all the craziness, peaceful, and a great way to unwind after a long week. Would strongly recommend checking it out!

Nice place for easy parking close to the beach. You have to pay $3 an hour but its worth it. Bathrooms are right there along with a couple of BBQ. On the beach your not on top of people. This is the place I go to with my Family.

Love coming here and walking out on the jetty looking at the water rushing in or out. If you go near high tide youll see an amazing blue hue in the water that compares to the islands. Theres always many species in particular sergeant major swimming near the rocks. There are also showers, bathrooms, and eating pavilion areas. Also, playgrounds for the kids.

The location is great, and parking is limited and quite expensive. Showers are great. However, at this time of the year, the amount of seaweed was overwhelming. About 2 feet high on the sand, and covered about 10 to 15ft into the water.

I came to Boca for a business trip, and this was the first beach I visited. It was quiet, I could hear the waves, and it was great watching the boats go in and out if the inlet. I did go again on a Saturday and it was packed. I believe it depends on the day of the week you decide to go. The pictures I took were on a Wednesday around 5:00 pm or so. Cant beat a calm evening at the beach after a long day of training people. I hope my review helps.

Beautiful little park. The views off of the jetty are great. No matter how hot it is, the string breeze from the ocean feels super nice. Many people fish off of the jetty so beware of hooks because, unfortunately, many people are quite bad at cleaning up after themselves. The parking there is expensive and crowded but so is everything in this area. If you dont mind a bit of a hike, you can park at the Publix down the road and you likely wont get towed.

No Parking sure its a nice place but the lack of parking unless you want to sit around for hrs is very offputting especially when theres multiple beach access points not 5minutes in each direction. Waste of time.

Review №49

Usually never a crowd. Good spot to fish or just hang out. Cant stand no free parking. Sorry poor people you cant come. Costs like 9 dollars for a few hours. Or you can hope for a spot down the road at the South Pavillion. It pisses me off that every place you go now is a private beach with no parking or access. The public is forced into only certain crowded locations. No freedom anymore.

Florida is an absolutely beautiful place because of the beaches anytime youre on the coast anywhere you go the beaches are awesome but the South inlet Park is definitely family-oriented great place to BBQ, birthday parties and the beaches are absolutely gorgeous, clean well maintained. lifeguards on duty and the park attendants are amazing to. Oh when you cant forget about the trails they have awesome nature trails that you can take walks with the kids and see the wildlife that Florida has to offer

I like to watch the boats come in and out the inlet. Theres is a nice play ground for the kids and a few public BQs with picnic tables, there is also a pavillion you can rent BUT there is limited parking so you have to get there early, also there is only 1 bathroom. Love the beach also anyone can come to this beach you do not need a pass you pay per hour per spot.

Such a cool place I just stumbled upon it while I was driving A1A. There was a cool pelican at the end of the inlet we were definitely able to see some cool fish and the views are spectacular. Theres plenty of parking and theres also a great place to use the restroom if you require more amenities. Nice and quiet.

We visit this place all the time. The parking is expensive but we buy a yearly pass. It’s clean and on a good day the water is beautiful. It’s a shot walk to Red Reef beach. Smoking is not permitted on the beach but it is not enforced. Really wish it was. They have a nice pavilion to people watch or to get out of the rain. They have volleyball sand courts too. They have chairs and umbrellas to rent but it’s pricey. Better off to bring your own.

I went here for my sister. I am not a fan of the beaches. I rather be at the library or book store. But this beach is interesting and nice and the sand is well sifted of sand. Soo soo clean, that it earns a 5 star on it.

If you want to have a nice day at the beach with friends and family with a great place to barbeque you found it. The only bad part is limited parking.
