This park is located at the end of Atlantic Ave. I discovered it because it is where the buses were launching from to ferry passengers to Everglades Day at Arthur R. Marshall. Otherwise I would never have stumbled on it. Located at the end of Atlantic, west of 441 on the north side is West Delray Regional Park. This park is quite large, over 300 acres and set up along the water which has an additional 38 lake acres. Many people were fishing along the water. Once I was able to explore the park I noticed it had a lot of amenities you don't typically find at your local park. The Gold Coast Archery Club operates a target range at the back of the park. The park has the typical bicycle, jogging, walking path but there is also a radio controlled boat lake, radio controlled flight field, and a radio controlled car track. The park also has a 5 mile bike trail, equestrian trails, boat launch, primitive camping area, and 16 hole disc gold course. A lot of groups meet at this park to practice their hobbies and sports. The only restrooms available here are portable toilets. Although this park seems remote and at one time was, less than a mile up the road is a brand new plaza with a Wawa that has gas, all the food you could want to eat, and a real bathroom. Grab a picnic and head to the park. This large natural area is the perfect place to get away from it all for a few hours at least.

Entry to mountain bike trail.

I went on a Sunday afternoon to ride the mountain bike trails. They say they are intermediate and usually I ride the novice trails. I was able to complete these trails with no problems. Online it says there are 5 miles of trails. They have bypasses for black diamond level, if you want more of a challenge. It is 75% shaded. There are not a lot of roots. There are two areas to park and enter the trails. There are porta-poddies at the park. There is no hose to clean your bikes.

Little known park that dead ends on Atlantic Ave west. There are a few picnic tables and nice walking paths. Great park to bring your bike. There's a very cool hidden 5 mile mountain bike trail in the woods. If disc golf is your thing, they have it set up throughout the park for you. There's a lake for fishing. But the big attraction at this park are the RC(radio controlled) vehicle areas for cars, boats and airplanes! I just enjoy watching them while taking a walk with my dog. It's not overwhelmed with dogs, just the opposite.

Great little park in W Delray Beach! Great bike trails, jumps, lakes and hiking trails.

This is an old park in West Delray that is being completely renovated. It now offers mountain biking, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, camping, archery, and rc model boat, car and airplane fields. Everything is still very new and in great condition. The MTB trails are what I primarily come for. It's a 3.5 mile loop that is pretty technical but a lot of fun. Work is still being done on the trail at the time I posted this. This park is all the way West. Kinda out of the way, so it gets very little traffic. Very nice if your trying to avoid crowds. I am sure that as word gets out that will change. Enjoy the peace and quiet for now.

I'm just beginning to explore the parks and sanctuaries in the area and this one is so perfect... well designed and maintained, a lot of birds, and other wildlife, including aligators. Love the boardwalk layout. I got caught with it closing at 7pm, as I thought it closed at sundown. Look forward to returning early morning when they open... as well as early evening... so see the activity at both times of the day. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I was very happy to see very few instances of litter and pollution inside the park. It was very clean. Everyone here on this particular day was very courteous, and it wasn't crowded on a holiday. Like birding? This spot is for you. The avian influence is strong in this park. The trees are filled with nests of cheerful, impatient, and angry birds. The glades have little chicks hopping around, looking for food, or taking bath. Mother ducks leading their flock, and Great Blue Herons majestically creeping around. There are plenty of iguanas climbing around looking for easy snacks in the branches, and you'll see some really big ones just wandering the open pathways too. And when you're lucky, there's a gator or two soaking about. I'd get there early, because it can get hot later in the day, and parking can be a limiting factor.

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.

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.

This place is an absolute gem in Palm Beach County -- a stunning 1.5-mile boardwalk winding through…read more100 acres of constructed wetlands, and every step of the way there is something to take in. Informational plaques are posted throughout, making it easy to learn about the native trees and bird species you encounter along the walk. The boardwalk is also stroller and wheelchair friendly, so it truly is a place for everyone! Come prepared: hat, sunscreen, and binoculars are a must, and don't forget your walking shoes. If you live nearby and love the outdoors, this is also the perfect spot to get your steps in while soaking up nature and staying active -- a workout that doesn't feel like one! My husband and I originally planned a quick visit and ended up staying for nearly three hours -- this place has a way of pulling you in. We chose to walk the boardwalk first and save the nature center for last, but if you're visiting from out of area or just want more context before you explore, I'd recommend flipping that order. The nature center is packed with information about the wetlands ecosystem, the wildlife that calls it home, and the fascinating history of the site itself -- none of which I knew before visiting. Grab a map before you head out! On our walk, we spotted an alligator gliding through the pond, turtles, and an impressive variety of bird species. The sounds were incredibly peaceful, and the stretches of shaded tree hammocks offered the perfect reprieve from the sun. We came across Gumbo Limbo trees, sabal palms, and strangler figs among other beautiful native species. It was truly a magical experience, and I cannot wait to come back!

The neighborhood has gotten a lot of improvements recently including upgraded streets, sidewalks, and alleys along with improvements to this park. Currie Commons Park was named in honor of George Graham Currie. There is a another park named for him in West Palm Beach. Currie was a native of Quebec. When he arrived in Florida he was penniless but he became a lawyer, made money, and then lost it all in real estate. He served as mayor of West Palm Beach from 1901 to 1902. He wrote 18 books of poems, essays, and music lyrics before passing away in 1926 shortly after this park was dedicated. One of the best features of Currie Commons Park is the recently replaced playground. The thirty three year old wood structure playground was compromised by years of use and weathering. It also had termite damage. Restoring it was not an option so it was disassembled. Funded by the Community Redevelopment Agency, a new multilevel playground was built and it is the first of its kind in South Florida. The four story playground has a giant twisting rainbow slide along with secret hidden instruments and butterfly surprises. During my visit you could tell how much the children were enjoying it. Other park amenities include a lighted little league field, multi-purpose field, press box, concessions, and restrooms. Whether you are coming for sports or play, the Currie Commons Park is a great recreational resource for those living in and visiting the Osceola neighborhood of Delray Beach.

This park truly had a glow-up -- and I mean a serious one…read more About a year ago, I wasn't the biggest fan of Patch Reef Park. The playground used to feel a bit unsafe, especially for younger kids. There were tall play structures (including a ship-style area) with spots lacking proper railings, and some slides ended too high off the ground, which made landings uncomfortable and even risky. The splash area was a fun idea, but the flooring was worn out, and the restrooms definitely needed an upgrade. Fast forward to now -- everything has changed. The renovation completely transformed this space into one of our favorite family spots, especially during hot Florida days. The playground is now fully enclosed with a fence and has a single entrance, which makes it much easier to keep an eye on kids The layout is circular, so visibility is great from almost any angle There's a shaded splash pad area (huge plus in the summer!) A separate, safe toddler zone -- thoughtfully designed and much more secure Soft ground (similar to artificial turf) -- very comfortable for kids The splash area has rubber flooring, and the play structures for older kids are still fun but noticeably safer now. There are also two swing areas and a basketball court. Small note: I personally think the basketball area should be fenced off -- balls can occasionally fly into the playground (we've experienced that ourselves). There are benches and picnic tables, but they fill up quickly on weekends. Pro tip: bring a picnic blanket and lunch -- it turns into the perfect cozy family setup. Other great features: * Clean, spacious restrooms (with very large changing stations) * Drinking water fountain * Easy parking * A cute little free book box -- bring a book, take a book * Walking trails with lots of greenery -- perfect for scooters and relaxed strolls One tiny aesthetic note -- some of the flooring colors (bright red/blue) feel a bit intense visually, but the green areas look beautiful and natural. Overall: an amazing upgrade. Safe, clean, well-designed, and very family-friendly. We come here often now, and the kids absolutely love it.

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.

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.
