Good local hideaway, kind of a local secret that others would really appreciate. If you want a nice day for a beach or picnic, this is the place.

There are no long beaches in this area, so Fred Howard Park is a county run park with picnic shelters, playgrounds, walking paths, trees and a causeway to fish from. Also an island beach with sand and palm trees. While not as glorious as Clearwater or St. Pete beaches, this is a charming area to visit with lots of potential... More

Lovely park, small beach, good facilities, great for walkers or runners. Photographic beauty &5 to park but yearly passes are available

My family arrived at the beach today, saw the truck and decided to wait a little while before getting lunch. When they went to get lunch @12:30, the food truck was gone. The... More

As a local, I enjoy snorkeling here on my days off during the week (When there are fewer people). You can really enjoy the sand and the view without cigarette smoke/butts or music! I'm grateful for my annual pass so I don't have to pay each time I go! It's a great little place, close to home and the opportunities... More
