Good access to St. Johns for fishing on old bridge. Busy boat launch on weekend. Only downside was amout of trash near pavillion - site needs some TLC.

Caught several but saw thousands

Are the boat ramps back open?

Yes, they've poured new concrete to reach 2 of the ramps. Thr middle ramp, as far as I saw last weekend, is still unattainable.

Can you fish off the bridge? Where’s the good fishing at this park? The train tracks right there are a big selling point for me, regarding making this my go-to spot vs veterans park. New to the area, thanks in advance.

Yes you can fish there and it's a nice place. Good fishing place is also next to the dock area where the sand is. Enjoy.

Is this considered freshwater or brackish?

Shawn Jenkins | Sep 12, 2019
C. Cintron | Sep 12, 2019

it is fresh water but with so many boats around you might get some diesel fuel gasoline floating in the water not bad but still clean enough to swim stay away from the marina...

Do they offer tent camping?or is there any camping sites in Seminole county?

PAMELA BENTLEY | Sep 12, 2018
Ted Marshall | Sep 12, 2018

No camping. The only overnight parking is for boat trailer/tow vehicle, i.e., people using the ramp.

Are they going to fix the street lights at the ramp so it would be a little safer for the people that use the ramp at night?

Rex Anderson | Sep 12, 2018
Harold Cotton | Sep 12, 2018

Most likely not. Unless someone gets injured during darkness.
