Great for Beach... Early morning walks or a day at the beach... family and friends gathering...cookouts. Easy access, close parking, outdoor showers, restrooms. Seaweed can be a issue... But not always.

Beautiful park that connects to the inter coastal across the street from A1A as well as to the beach. Good amount of parking and some beautiful murals for picture taking. I found out that dogs are NOT allowed in the park however I was able to snap these photos of my Roo before leaving 😎

This is one of the best beaches in south Florida. It has a good amount of parking and can fill up on weekends. Parking is $25 for the day and there is metered parking for $3 an hour across the street. The park has both paved paths and boardwalks to walk on. There are lots of picnic tables in shaded areas with BBQ grills. You are always close to one of the many clean bathrooms. For children there are a couple of playgrounds. The beach is beautiful. It’s a bit of a steep walk down stairs or a ramp depending on which area you are at. You can go to the north end of the park where there isn’t any lifeguard and the beach is less busy.

Beautiful park with lots of picnic areas, 2 playgrounds and beach access. Only four stars because I'm terrified of spiders and there's literally thousands of them lining the trees. I know it's their habitat and they eat other bugs which is good.... But it still gave me anxiety walking around so many of them. Pay attention or you might wind up walking into a web. Lovely beach. Check for low/high tide times and go during low tide. Don't forget your mosquito spray at dusk. Cost is 25$ to park. If you're a resident of the city of Boca def. get the annual beach pass at the community center or at Sugar Sand Park.

I'm aware that there is a parking fee on the weekends but is there a fee for parking during the week as well?

Marlene Boss | Sep 6, 2020
Xavi Ky | Sep 6, 2021

There is a public parking crossing the street, you pay 3 dollar per hour ,if you know you are going to stay for more than 6 hours , then the 20 dollars is a better option. I stayed for 2 hours and paid only 6 dollars.

Yes, everything Evan said. Or early in the morning. We arrived at the beach around 8:30 a few days ago and there were quite a few people fishing on the beach. But when the life guard showed up around 9, they all left.

Sandra Cruz | Sep 6, 2020

There are signs that say pets are not allowed, on the beach. Most times, the park rangers will use their digression if they see people waking their pets through the park. Just a heads up

Has anyone found shark teeth in this area, some site has this area as the #4 place in FL to find shark teeth...

Ray Donovan | Jul 8, 2022
Fred Dombski | Jul 8, 2022

I assume you are referring to fossilized shark teeth. Never saw any here. I believe it to be rare as the wave action would either bury too deep or wear them down. Rivers and inlets are a good choice. But with anything it is where you find it.

Christina (Healthy Life) | Sep 6, 2020
Joe Tortorici | Sep 6, 2020

There is no entrance fee if you walk or bike into the park just a $20 parking fee to park your car. However, as someone pointed out, there is no where to actually bike once you're at the park. It's just beach and a nice walking trail.

how is parking and what is the fee. How far is the parking from the boardwalk

Francoise Askervold | Sep 7, 2019
Kerri-Anne Hein | Sep 7, 2019

The parking is literally a few steps to the boardwalk and its 19$. Very well worth it! Especially after a hot day on the beach, it's nice to be able to get back to your car in a splash! Hope this helps.
