Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and the Inter- coastal Waterway, this
144-acre park offers coastal camping, picnicking, swimming, fishing,
and nature study. The daily low tide is an ideal time to observe the
shore birds feeding in tidal ponds, and summer months bring sea turtles
to lay their eggs in the sand.
At night during the months of May through early September endangered
and threatened Loggerhead, Green and the rare Leatherback sea turtles
crawl on the beach to nest and lay their eggs as they have done for
thousands of years. A wide variety of bird life can be observed during
the fall, winter and spring months.
On the west side of A1A lies the Intra coastal waterway part of the
park. Here you will find the Ranger Station, boat ramp and boat basin,
with excellent saltwater fishing and access to  the
Intra coastal waterway. The area also has picnic tables, a large picnic
pavilion and ? mile nature trail. It is a great place to watch birds
and offers a beautiful sunset.
