I've been to many beaches all up and down the Gulf but I enjoyed this one the most. The facilities were well kept. They offered chair and umbrella rentals at a reasonable price but you had to go to parking area 4 to get them. I suggest getting there early in the day and parking in area 4.

Good beach for not a lot of other people. Not amazing and pretty narrow. We didn't go down to the forth parking lot but I guess there are chairs and things to rent there. Naples pier was a wider area but much more crowded. If you want a quite beach this is good at least on the day we were... More

Delanor Wiggins Pass State Recreational Area is a great beach. It is also good for grilling (grills provided) and enjoying a meal. There is an osprey nest by the last parking lot where you can watch the baby osprey being feed by mom and dad in February. Also, a great place to watch the sunset.

We went with a group of friends and got a spot with 2 tables and a grill. It was a lovely shaded area, not too far from the restrooms (which were VERY clean) and a 2 min walk to the actual beach. I'd say it's well worth the parking fee and in fact we are going again.

Six dollars to park and no toilets or showers. But parked close to the beach - easy access. Sand white sea blue beach clean- very nice. Even saw several dolphins and lots of birds.

Yes, they do charge $6.00 per car (for up to 8 people) to get in, but parking is readily available and the beach is not crowded at all (we were there on a warm sunny Sunday afternoon in July). There are picnic tables and benches beneath the palm trees, all nicely shaded. The clusters of picnic tables had grills on... More

Lovely park and well worth the the $6 entry fee. Saw lots of wildlife, beautiful beaches and the boardwalk and foot wash facilities were an added bonus. Take your camera !
