Nice because if you're in the area

It's a nice, shallow area. I'm not sure if that's usual or not. My 2 year old was able to walk out... read more

Must get there early or plan to wait in line, they only have limited space, but it's a nice little spot to sit by the water, have a picnic, swim, etc.

We knew there are no beaches in this area of Florida, but just wanted to sit near some water and chill for a few hours. When we got there, the parking lot had just reopened after being full. There's a $5 fee to park. There is a playground for the kids, a snack bar, which has lots of food variety, covered benches to picnic, and a small beach area with shallow water. We sat on some beach towels on the sand, and the wind was so bad that we had sand in our eyes, ears and hair. We're not sure if it's always this windy, but we threw in the "towel" after an hour or so. You can't walk the beach as it isn't really a beach. But if you just want to be near water and maybe hang out for an hour or two, this fits the bill. If you have small kids, they probably with enjoy it there.

It's a beach. If you're in the area and want to go to a beach then this is your only choice. Not beautiful at all compared to other Florida beaches.

Pine Island is a hidden gem! We were visiting from upstate NY and found this place when browsing the internet. Beautiful scenery and very relaxing, although I am sure it is busy during the summer months.

I made a recent trip out to Pine Island to see what the only beach in Hernando County is like. Also a fair warning, there is no beach in Hernando Beach, it's just a community with a misleading name. I've been asked about this "Hernando Beach "beach" and I want to clarify; Pine Island is the only beach in Hernando County! Anyway I'm more of a fresh water guy so hence the reason for the 4 stars. Also if you're a beach person this pales in comparison to Clearwater Beach which all the youth rave about. Also the name is kind of stupid, there are literally no Pine trees on the whole island as it is nothing more than palm trees everywhere less a scrub oak here and there. A fair warning, Willy's Tropical Breeze (diner at Pine Island) is expensive! Like $3.50 for a plain hot dog, I doubt it's even all beef. Serious busting heads out there with the food prices but I guess you pay for the remoteness of it. The drummers show up every other Sunday to bang out the island beats while some gypsy-esque ladies do a dance with fabric. Pretty cool to say the least, pretty cool.
