Was so surprised that this park with a swimming area has no swimming areas. Yes there is water (brackish with more fresh than salt water) but it is only 3-4 feet deep at its deepest. As a grown man, I was able to walk for a long time and the water never got as high as my swim trunks. I had to sit in the water to get wet. Yes people had fun looking for crabs, and we saw dolphins way out in the water, and there were some trees for some shade. But it was still, a little smelly, no waves, no salt air, no depth and tons of kids under 8 years. We thought it would be water and swimming north of Clearwater Beach, but it was more like a Kiddie pool.

This park was awesome. The beach was nice and clean. It wasn’t too crowded. There were nice picnic shelters and a cool restaurant/snack bar. The showers and changing area were convenient. We had fun on the beach volleyball court and playground. I highly recommend it!

The park has a nice size beach for not being in one of the highly known areas. Parking is good sized and the beach is well maintained and clean. There is a playground for younger kids nice size and in great shape. Good beach bathroom facilities also well maintained. 5 dollar parking fee used for the up keep. The water is clear and for large area 3 to 5 feet deep in the entire swim area with gentle to no waves. The water is dived into 3 parts once you get in. First is the wash area with some sea grass floating around. Second sandy bottom with none to very little floating. Third is sand and grass bottom with little to nothing floating. The grass bottom mixed with sang changes in density. As tide rolls out crabs and hermit crabs are seen or can be found. Some fish swimming around but I have never seen a school of them. As the tide rolls out you can walk well past the swim line this is a shallow water area. We really enjoyed this location in all. Not the busy beach seen as this is more laid back. Will return again and again.
