This is our local beach when we go to Delray. In the past, it would have been a 5 star but sadly…read morethe beach is being washed away. What is left of it makes for cramped seating unless you are willing to walk, which we did, but had we been with our in-laws it would not have been that easy. Also the stairs and walking path seems as if they are falling apart. Need some remediation and a good paint job. Positives are still showers and restrooms. And easy metered parking right across the street. Very sad to see.

Saturday morning, I got up early and headed to Atlantic Dunes Park. I arrived early enough that the…read moreregular parking lot was still locked, which was a serious bummer. I get that someone needs to be here to open it but this was a disappointment. Once I did find a spot to park, it was a nice walk through the mangroves and along the boardwalk over the dunes to the beach. I found a seat, probably trespassing from one of the communities but the chair was comfy. With my coffee in hand, I was here for over an hour as the Sun slowly came over the horizon. I was undisturbed. Other beachgoers walking back and forth but folks seemed to get my vibe and did not approach. There is a beached sailboat here since December. Maybe it's still here when you visit. It made for some fun photos. There is a bathroom facility and a beach shower and a picnic pavilion. Parking across the street requires feeding a meter. Don't forget that.

Delray Beach is a small city on Florida's southeast coast intersected by Rt #1, I95, and the…read moreFlorida Turnpike. There are beautiful beaches, fine restaurants, and lots of shopping. I love the Delray Green Market & Silverball Retro Arcade & Lady Atlantic Yacht Cruises. Atlantic Avenue is a bustling walkable main strip going east west from the beach across the intercostal bridge ending in the Delray Market Place. The street & market are packed with galleries, boutiques, and outdoor dining that is perfect for people watching. The Delray Beach Amphitheatre at Old School Square present concerts, the Delray Affair, a Christmas tree & program ... Sandoway Discovery Center, Veterans Park & Anchor Park are a happening. The Delray Tennis Center hosts professional tennis tournaments on Atlantic Ave. The Pineapple Grove Arts District offers public art and galleries. Nearby, Cornell Art Museum displays contemporary works. The Arts Garage & Delra The lakeside Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens has an amazing gift shop, restaurant, with tea ceremonies, calligraphy workshops and serene outdoor spaces. Wakodahatchee Wetlands is a park featuring a raised boardwalk with views of birds, turtles and alligators. There are too many restaurants & shops to list; in Delray Beach. The Opal Grand, Aloft, Hyatt, The Ray, the Seagate, the historic Colony Hotel, Courtyard, Hampton Inn, Fairfield Inn ... are just some of the hotels in Delray.

It took forever for us to find parking, so we ended up doing valet near this beach. I was sunburnt from the day before so was on a quest to find an umbrella to rent. Thankfully, Oceanside rentals came in clutch with a $32 umbrella only all day rental. We liked this beach a lot because of the calm water. We also appreciated that there was less seaweed and calmer water than Boynton Beach's Ocean Front Beach Park. The surrounding green was gorgeous. Where we entered there was a giant pipe though that smelled a little like cigars, but we sat far enough away for it not too bother us too much. If you don't mind walking a bit for parking, this beach is a great pick.

Nice shaded paved walkway to beach that looks like a jungle. Shaded bbq area as well. Bathrooms, and a jungle gym. Outdoor shower. I don't think there is a place to rent beach chairs, I think you have to bring your own. Water was super calm, more calm in mid day. And very shallow. Mostly older people and less kids. But it's actually good for kids because you can go out pretty far and still be at your waist. Some places even knees far out. It was just peaceful and nice. If you want a quiet day at the beach this is it! And it's free. I saw a small school of fish further out and also some type of bottom feeder fish. Very clean beach too, free of garbage. I did find one floating wrapper and I picked it up. Lots of sea shells around that are pretty.

There were piles and piles of Sargassum seaweed that they are trying to rake and remove, but not fast enough. Gulfstream Park has free parking, clean restrooms, a lifeguard on duty, water fountains, showers as well as picnic tables under huge shady sea grapes. The water was warm unfortunately it wasn't that clean. There was no under toe, the water was very calm and it felt like I was in the gulf. Dogs are not permitted on the beach, but there was a man with a cockatoo on his shoulder. Signs were posted regarding feral cats and warnings not to abandon pets here. It was a little bit of a walk from the parking lot down a few steps onto the beach.

Aim for early morning or later in the afternoon to snag a spot without the stress. What makes this park special is the covered area right next to the upper parking lot -- benches, shade, sea breezes, and a gorgeous view of the beach, all without a single grain of sand in your shoes. I've spent many a relaxed afternoon just soaking in the scenery from up there. But when the mood strikes, I grab my towel or beach chair and head down to the sand for the full beach experience. The amenities are solid: clean bathrooms and rinse-off showers, covered picnic pavilions with grills and tables, and lifeguards on duty daily from 9 to 5. With the recent beach expansion, there's even more shoreline to spread out and embrace your inner beach bum. Whether you're here to unwind in the shade or dig your toes in the sand, Oceanfront Park delivers. Highly recommend for locals and visitors alike!

The beach area is nice but my wife and I prefer to take the weekends to walk and burn off unwanted calories while shopping on Atlantic Ave. Some of the main attractions are the Cornell Art Museum, Pineapple Grove, Old School Square, Roccos Tacos, Farmhouse Kitchen, Delray Marketplace and the newly renovated Sunday Village. Parking is a major concern, but after circling the area there are parking garages, private lots and city managed lots. Beware: You will get a citation if you parallel park in front of the restaurants along Atlantic Ave without paying online. Lots of violation tickets on the windshields of vehicles.

It's got a nice nightlife with plenty of good restaurants, live music and outdoor bars. Atlantic Ave is the main street the stretches from I95 to the beach and it's walkable. Parking can be a problem. There's a free ( before 4) lot at Old School Square and also some street parking by the police station and library. There's pay by the hour lots and all day parking for a fee once you pass Swinton. Pineapple Grove is the arts district with public art and Galleries. Plan an evening at the Arts Garage for some music or comedy. I did notice there are a lot of empty store fronts and in my last visit everything past the railroad tracks closed around 9:30 and that was a Saturday night. Not to worry, there are plenty of good restaurants and a vibrant night life open from Swinton to the railroad tracks.

To see the sun set with such dramatic colors in the sky, while knowing that it will rise again the next day, hopefully it can instill and renew hope within you to muster up the strength to face whatever challenge you are facing on that day. We stayed briefly and didn't stay a while. Maybe all three of us thought of different things, but to coexist in that beautiful moment was nice enough for me to want to go back again soon. The view was really nice. Words can't describe how I felt so please stop by yourself and feel for it yourself. The walkaway and parking was kinda tricky for me. It's nice but then again it's accessible to anyone so it can be rough depending on what kind of crowd is there. You might have to walk around like we did to find few good picture spots. The roads are two way but kinda tight so if you are driving around in an suv like me, please be mindful of the size of your vehicle while on the road!
