Good spot for launching our stand-ups. Bugs and mosquitoes like the area too, but can get out to the intercoastal and tour the mangroves at the same time.

Nice little small off the beaten trail spot. I hope they expand the trail in the future didn't feel very long.

Decent park, bit of strange layout. Not sure how old it is but the concrete is pretty worn. My 101s were way too hard. The flow bowl is pretty fun, two 45 hips that are pretty easy to get to. If you can't generate speed you can easily drop in from the vet wall on them or roll in. Park has good visibility so easy to spot cross traffic. Lots of big tall wedges to get your flippy tricks on but not much in the way of ledges. Some step ups. There's prefab park too which is decent for beginners. Does keep them out of the main park though which I appreciated. I had good time skateboarding there but not sure it's one I'd frequent. I really only skated it cause Englewood was closed to bikes on Tuesdays.

No one was around on a Saturday all day I went fishing kayak went right into the main ocean perfect spot no bathrooms but perfect chill spot to look at nature and some big fish. I would definitely recommend this place to anybody. Unless you have kids I wouldn't recommend.
