The park is clean, with quite a few tables for picnicking. However, the covered pavilions are closed, and so are the bathrooms. The beach is great and uncrowded at this time. It costs $6.00 to enter, which may deter summer people from entering. Five stars when pavilions and bathroom is reopened.

I went on a guided kayak tour with April from the Manatee Center out of Lisas Kayaks. Everyone was wonderful. The water was clean, the air smelled fresh, the mangrove trail was like being in a different world. It was magical! I joined Lisas Kayaking Adventures club. They go out 3 times weekly. Looking forward to it!

We went to the park yesterday, usually It’s a very nice park it’s quiet it’s quaint and never too crowded. As we paid the six dollars which is full price we were never told about the inconveniences, these are not the worst things that could happen however, we should have been told this before going into the park and paying full price. When you pay full price for something you expect to get all the amenities included in the price and in this particular case one of the amenities which was the bathrooms was closed the other amenity was the shower that’s outside for you to rinse the sand off your feet from having gone to the beach, When we complained about this to the front office or the entrance of the park we were brushed off with very little regard for our concerns, I don’t mind paying six dollars if I get everything that’s included in the price, but I don’t like to be brushed aside like an old shoe.

Had a great time here. We sunbathed and relaxed in the sand along the inlet. It helped our experience that the weather was great.

This park cost just four dollars to enter and allows you access to miles of trails that are bike friendly. There are several areas to access the beach and showers and restrooms are close by the beach entrances. The beach here was beautiful with lots of wildlife, I saw a raccoon, several types of lizards, and tons of sea birds all over the beach. The sea birds here are a protected species and are abundant and absolutely beautiful.

This was our first visit. We came for a family afternoon, the park happens to be about mid-point between two family groups. We live about an hour north on the coast, and we dont have any parks with pavilions on the water like this. We had pavillion 1, much larger than we needed but we appreciated the shade and location. Also the only one available when we called. We had a great time on a beautiful cool day. A super visit.

We love this park. It has picnic areas and playground and Beach access. Usually a lot of boats are passing through the inlet, but today was breezy and cool. Nice with abundant sun and 65 degrees. Quiet and relaxing on the little Beach area. Across the inlet we could see kites. You can walk over to the ocean and nice wide Beach.

Great beach spot. The waters here are very clear most of the timeThis is were the cleaner water of South Florida starts. From this point south you are in more tropical ocean conditions.

Absolutely love coming to this beach! However, I’m a little disappointed that when the park is at 25% capacity, and people leave the park, they do not allow others to come in. When people are leaving the park in dozens, and no one else is allowed in after they leave, I feel that’s not right. If you are at capacity and people leave, you have room for others to come and enjoy the beach as well. There should be better maintaining of the occupancy so everyone can enjoy the beach and surf as well. If people leave, others should be let in until 25% occupancy or sun down when the park closes.Also, the portable restrooms never have toilet paper.

Beautiful beach. But no showers or bathroom. For 6$il save it and go down the road for free. Also they have showers that work. Please fix your showers and bathrooms.

Review №16

Where I was, parking was spread out but still convenient. It depended on where you ended up to set up. Even though you can swim there al Beit carefully,bad undertow at tide changes, a shower area would be nice instead of just a foot washing faucet.

Review №17

Love how you can sit out by the water watch the boats come and go. They have picnic tables and lawn swings with a paved sidewalk all the way out to the end of the Jetty. You can fish, bird watch, people watch etc

It was beautiful, not to many people on the south side. Trails, beach, playground, pavilions and bathrooms were all very clean. Nice quiet place to spend the day with the family. The water was so much fun we even had a manatee swim right infront of us.

I love this beach / nature reserve, they pay attention to the wild lifes well being. They also keep the beaches clean and they have canopies with grilles so you can make some great food and have fun at the beach.

Quiet on an overcast day, easy access to beach, picnic pavilions, and trails. A map on entry would have been nice. Beach birds were cool to see!

Review №29

One of the greatest state parks to visit for the purpose of relaxation and inventing your own fun.Catch the crystal clear water coming in at high tide and snorkel the jetty or catch little greenies in the tide pools. Kids love climbing on the jetty rocks, feeling like distant explorers.Travel back toward Dynamite point and youll see families hanging on the playground or the avid fisherman maneuvering their way through the mangroves to catch fish on the bend.Are there surfers, definitely. Some are still learning how to develop a sense of respect for locals, but for the most part you cant beat the surf culture youll find here. The break is definitely worth mentioning. Regardless of the size of the bump, its always been a fun ride.Early morning dawn patrols cant be beat, with a stunning sunrise and teeming wildlife.Nice little shower and bathroom setup at boardwalk 1. Plenty of seclusion from the crowds found at boardwalk 3-4.Park now has an official rental business for paddle boards and bikes. Best money spent if you can book a paddle tour with Eddy Fredryk.

Best of both worlds. Hiking trail and Beach. You can enjoy a nice trail less than a mile long that has a variety of foliage (small live oaks, palms, to a rare horned type tree?). Not the longest or most scenic trails in the area, but definitely a great experience. After stretching your legs through the hammock you can enjoy about three different entrances to the beach to cool off, or simply enjoy the views of the inlet, and even catch a glimpse of the jetty accross the way. They even have a kids playground, multiple picnic tables with grills, and public bathrooms for use. It is a about $6 fee per vehicle to get in, but worth the experience for a nice family day outdoors.

Nice state park. Much easier to get out into the ocean than at Sebastian Inlet... seems to be deeper with fewer things on the bottom to create the rolling waves you find at Sebastian Inlet State Park. Caught some big Jacks across from the Coast Guard station on Sunday

My family and I love this park and beach. It has beaches on the ocean and inlet sides. In parts of the inlet side, you can swim across a small channel to a beach on an island where hermit crabs and other sea life roam. There are also several pavilions and grills fir cookouts. Our family has made many fun memories at this park.

Beautiful Florida state park located on the north side of the inlet protected from development. Very gradual dropoff on ocean side and soft baby powder sand. June and July water can be most days very clear and clean. Love the wildlife seen bobcats, bunnies, black snakes and gopher tortoises on the trails. Many varieties of plant life typical of undeveloped beaches on Atlantic coastal side .

We absolutely love this park its great for smaller children. The trail to the beach is beautiful and sometimes you can see turtles. You have to pay admission I think its like $6 or something not too bad. They have showers and clean bathrooms and stalls to change in. If youre visiting the area its a definite must-see.
