There's a handicap accessible playground and more seating to eat at the little beach food shop. Walking the pier allows you to see a great view of the shoreline, but be careful on windy and wavy days as the water comes up over the pier . In the peak summer months, I would recommend parking up on top of the bluff and walking down the steps right by Silver Beach Pizza, so you can save yourself from the cluster of cars trying to get down to beach parking. Also, St. Joe city is changing parking and routing near Silver Beach so be aware of traffic shifts. All in all, a great beach for families, but 4/5 stars because some other beaches are less touristy, which locals like myself much prefer.

There was also a large elastic spider web, for lack of a better description; though this did not get as much usage as the rest of the play area. There are benches allover for great views of the sunset. The only downsides are paying to park and you can't really get into the water since there isn't direct access.

I love coming out here when there's not many people and just think while looking out at the water. Yes, you do have to pay for parking, but you do at most, if not all, beaches in the area. I do prefer this beaxh over Silver Beach mostly because there is less people, not far from Silver Beach, easy to get to and easy to find a parking spot. They have park equipment, picnic tables, and a roof covered area.

I have decades worth of soccer related memories of this place. When I was young my brother and I…read moreplayed soccer here. I was never very good so by middle school I stopped played but I still came out here to watch friends games. Then came high school. I'd visit here rooting for my boyfriend at the time at the top of my lungs. Now that I'm an adult I come to root for my nephew who is honestly a lot like me on the field- much more interested in friends and grass. I've never had any bad memories here except maybe losing a game which must not have been so bad because i dont remember any specific losses. Will keep coming for soccer because soccer.

I would greatly recommend this park to anyone.

Check their website for current hours :) A wonderful spot in St Joe!
