    Lakeview Park is nestled in the back of the upscale Lakeview neighborhood in Delray Beach. The…read moredesirable neighborhood dates back to the early 1970's and mainly features large, single family homes. Lakeview Park is the neighborhood park for this community. Park amenities include a boat ramp, pavilion which can be rented, picnic pavilion, picnic table, playground, restroom, wand walking path. My favorite part of the park was the gorgeous view of Lake Ida, a popular spot for boating, fishing, and bird watching. The lake was named after the wife of Delray Beach's founder and was once a part of a huge farm. The area was later transformed into a park in the early 1970s. There are two other, much larger parks on Lake Ida, Lake Ida East Park and Lake Ida West Park. An interesting thing I noticed at Lakeview Park is that it had a number of new trees planted. This is the same thing I have been seeing at all of the parks in Delray Beach. The trees are part of the Delray Beach tree planting program which aims to put in 10,000 trees by 2025. To complete the goal the city entered into an agreement with Community Greening in 2022 funded by the Tree Trust Fund. Community Greening is an Urban Forestry nonprofit with the mission to increase South Florida's tree canopy. I love the work they are doing and it is great to learn more about them. If you want to get involved in planting more trees there is a list of events they need volunteers for on their website as well as a list of days they are giving away trees.

    One of Delray's larger parks, the name gives it away. This park is located on the eastern shore of…read moreLake Ida in a very nice residential neighborhood. There is a big parking area and a boat launch with space for cars with trailers. The park has a big pavilion that can be reserved from the city (see the web page for info). Picnic tables throughout, barbecue grills, a nice playground, a permanent building with restrooms and a walking trail that goes around the park. From the lakeside, you can enjoy the birds, perhaps do some fishing, or watch over in the distance as the cars go northbound on I-95. I found it quite peaceful.

    I have always liked this beach as it is easily accessible. We have been coming here for more than…read more30 years. Although most of the time it's a walk through or stroll by rather than sitting on the beach itself and catching some rays. We had come for lunch across the street from the beach. There several restaurants from which to choose. Dining outside we were able to see everything, smell the sea air and hear the ocean. After lunch, we walked over closer. You walk down stairs at this point to get to the beach. As usual, on a weekend, the area right by the lifeguard station tower was packed. This beach has facilities, showers, picnic areas and grills. It also has the fishing pier. Almost 2 and a half miles of beach on the Atlantic Ocean. It's a great place for locals and tourists. Locals can get annual parking passes. Regular parking is $4 an hour. Unfortunately, the day we came the ocean was rough with rip tides, and jelly fish (eek!), so swimming was being restricted to close by the shore. And this kept us from putting our feet in the water and walking along the beach edge. The lifeguards were doing a good job policing with their whistles to keep folks from venturing too far out in the ocean. We will be back soon.

    A delightful afternoon to be on the beach! We had a…read morewonderful lunch just across the street and decided to linger a bit longer and soak up some much needed sunshine and ocean air.

    Jewell Cove Natural Area is located across the street from the Lake Worth Municipal Park. It is…read morejust South of the Lake Ave. Bridge along Ocean Ave. on the east side of the Lake Worth Lagoon. This natural area is a maritime hammock which is a natural band of forest that grows on the stabilized back dunes of barrier islands. This natural area is 11.4 acres with 1,200 feet of shoreline on the Lake Worth Lagoon. In February 1967 this land was leased for 99 years to the Milton Steinhardt family. In 2012, Judge Raphael Steinhardt, grandson of Milton Steinhardt relinquished the lease so that the land could be donated to the City of Lake Worth to be enjoyed by the public. This parcel has now been turned into a nature preserve, nine acres of which are submerged so that mangroves and sea grasses can grow. A maritime hammock community makes up another 2 and 1/2 acres. In 2015 and 2016 volunteers removed exotic plants. Fifteen truckloads were removed along with concrete material that had been dumped to prevent erosion. Three thousands tons of limestone were then installed to create a breakwater that prevents erosion and creates a habitat for oysters which filter the water. Clean sand was added and sea grass and mangroves were planted. The mangroves also filter out pollutants and acts as a marine life nursery. The marsh grass breaks up wave energy and provides a wildlife habitat. The Jewell Cove Natural Area serves as a refuge to the animals of the Lake Worth lagoon. This includes osprey, tricolored heron. snowy egret, little blue heron, and white ibis. Plants found here include coralbean, cabbage palm, sea grape, strangler fig, sand cordgrass, green buttonwood, and mangroves. There is a hiking trail through the preserve and you can launch a kayak on the Lake Worth Lagoon but the main benefit of this preserve is to improve the health of the Lake Worth Lagoon ecosystem. In 2019, the commission voted to put on the ballot a 99-year lease on Jewel Cove's 11.4 acres submerged along the Intracoastal and to keep the land on the southeast side of the bridge a natural area. This ensures that the area stays a natural living shoreline, protected by Palm Beach County. The county will not be able to build on the land and it will be maintained as a sanctuary.

    I had been to this park a few times now, always for the disc golf…read more It not too far from me, just way West. Its nice for me and others who want to hit the park extra early as its open at at least 7am, while most state parks don't open till 8am. Last week I came for my third round of disc at this course. Plenty of people have told me its one of the better courses in South Florida but I have only really played Broward courses. Last time I played this course it rained the whole time so not great. But this was a fine day. Getting there about 730am beat the crowd, big time. Even after warming up putting, I was the only car in the parking lot. And away I went. Its a nice course with white and red tees. I had a nice round, and I can see why it has a good reputation. It draws a good crowd at the park at the other areas, especially the Remote control(RC) areas. Plenty of planes up in the air. Its a great park, well worth the drive out West.

We also have watched the radio controlled airplanes fly in the back some are quite amazing although today no one was allowed as the President isnin town per FAA no flights at all. We have utilized the bike trails in the back and there are ramps, so e are quite high for the adventurer. Today we just rode bikes around the park. There are a lot of other things available here to do. You can have a nice picnic or actually primitive camp here too with a permit. Always a nice park tondo various things for all ages big and small.

The park is big (over 8 acres) and it has a lot of amenities for locals and visitors, here you can enjoy Baseball / Softball, Basketball Courts, Volleyball, Tennis Courts, Soccer Fields, walking tracks (almost half a mile with nice exercise stations), and several playgrounds... For those not so much into active life and sports, you can still enjoy the park by using their grills, pavilion, picnic areas, picnic shelters. There is plenty of parking and nice clean restrooms. The park is open from 8 a.m to Sunset, every day of the week. Alcoholic beverages are not allowed in the park.Pets are not permitted in the park, either. Come by and enjoy this nice green space !

Everything was open. I enjoyed the running/fitness track which circles the park. The track is made of a squishy like material which at first I felt like I was sinking into, but by the second day I got used to. There were plenty of people using the park but it did not seem over crowded, it looked like parking may be an issue if there was a game or too many visitors. it was a pleasant place to spend some time while my son was practicing!
