The highlight of Oaks Park is the clay walking trail that winds throughout the park. Tall trees provide welcome shade, and the small canal alongside the back portion of the path is lovely. The park also features a butterfly garden, a large picnic pavilion with tables, two tennis courts, and plenty of grassy open space perfect for picnics or play. Along the walking path are poignant tributes. Every few feet, there are memorial trees lining the trail. I took a moment to read some of the memorial plaques. They reminded me that even after we leave this earth, our love for those left behind lives on.

Well-maintained tennis courts offer space to play for two games at a time. The courts are available at night with lights that go on for 60 minutes and then shut off automatically. The park is very pretty and has many containers for recycling and trash. There is no water source for people but there is a nice pavilion for shade. Pets are not allowed but parking at Oaks Park and then walking along the pretty street lined sidewalks is an option that I have done a few times.

Loved this easy and quick trail. Located off of Crestwood,…read moreit has a small paved parking lot- maybe 12-15 parking spots. I went on a Friday around lunch time. I was the only on there with my pups. It's a very easy and relaxing walking route. I have very bad arthritis in my knees so I'm always concerned about that. But the trail was easy to navigate. There were benches spaced out nicely so I could take a seat when my knees started acting up. The path was made in a way that you would not easily see the next bench if you wanted some privacy to relax and take in the water and wildlife. There is a small portion of the trail that is unpaved- but it was flat and I had no problems with walking it. The unpaved section is maybe only 10% of the total trail. If that's not something you wanted to test or if you are with a walker or wheelchair, you could go in the opposite direction then turn back around. It's a completed loop. All of the trail that was along the water was paved. So you don't miss anything by not taking the small unpaved section. The path itself is a quick lap probably would have taken my 5-7 minutes if I was by myself and didn't stop to sit and relax. There is a small picnic table under a pavilion that you can also stop too. Overall. Very easy, quiet and relaxing walking route. I've added it to my new list of places to go when I need to get some fresh air.

I loved discovering this 10 acre nature park located in Royal Palm Beach. It was dedicated in 2008…read more Wetland parks are some of my favorite kind of parks because they attract a variety of wildlife including wading birds, migrating birds, lizards, turtles, and alligators. From the parking lot where you can see a variety of ducks and other birds swimming in the water, you pick up a paved path that takes you opposite a Catholic church before winding around the water behind the backyards of houses. Along the way are benches. At the entrance to the woods, the path becomes natural earth and leads you back to the parking lot. Near the water I saw a lot of birds including a great egret, common moorhens, and an anhinga. In the woods I noticed branches heavy with purple American beauty berry which wild animals love to eat. I love loop paths and this one was very scenic. This a short and easy hike that anyone can do so come out and enjoy the natural side of Florida.

One of my husband's grandsons is named Parker so we were curious and took the road north instead of heading to US1. The park is right north/next to the Riker Athletic Campus -- part of the Palm Beach Atlantic College (not FAU). And I don't think most of the families using this park even question how it was named or care. You can google or go to Wikipedia for this information. When we stopped by everything was so vibrantly green -- including a large grassy "sports" area where two guys were practicing their soccer kicks. The park has many amenities -- both a bike and walking path (paved), a children's playground, toilet facilities and a water fountain. The most appealing area to me was the splash pad. There were some interesting trees with a bit of shade. I especially liked that there were picnic tables and benches throughout so parents could watch their kids. The park is open sunrise to sunset. Glad we stopped to check it out.

The Palm Beach Lake Trail is, without question, one of the best ways to experience Palm Beach…read more We started at a bike rental shop just across the bridge in West Palm at 8th and Dixie, which couldn't have been more perfect. The bikes were comfortable, easy to ride, and ready to go when we arrived. It was $50 for a half day... quick, simple, and totally worth it. Bing bang boom, we were on our way. We crossed over the Flagler Memorial Bridge and immediately connected to the Lake Trail, heading north. After a quick pit stop at the bathrooms, we settled into the ride... and it was spectacular. The trail hugs the Intracoastal the entire way, winding past stunning estates, perfectly manicured hedges, and nonstop water views. We rode all the way to the northern tip of the island, where you're rewarded with incredible views overlooking Singer Island and Peanut Island. That moment alone made the ride unforgettable. On the way back, we switched it up and rode along Ocean Boulevard for about a mile and a half, with the Atlantic on our side, before looping back down and reconnecting with the Lake Trail to head south and cross the bridge home. What really surprised me was how peaceful it was. Yes, there were other cyclists and walkers, but it never felt crowded, even in the middle of peak season. It felt calm, relaxed, and almost private at times. And the cherry on top... the bike shop is right near the new Nora District, so we wrapped up the ride with pizza and ice cream. Absolute perfection. This is a must-do if you're in Palm Beach. Whether you live here or you're visiting, the Lake Trail delivers scenery, serenity, and that classic Palm Beach magic all in one ride. Literally a perfect Sunday.

Along the trail, about 5 miles long, you'll come across a few old landmarks (the Kopok tree, Sea GullCottage (one of the oldest houses in Palm Beach), Bethesda by the Sea (old church converted into a house), the Duck Nest (the oldest house in PB)), and the Henry Morrison Flagler Museum. You'll also pass beautifully landscaped docks, small and large boats, ivy and bougainvillea draped walls, and large mansions that are fun to look at on your walk. Not to mention, the gorgeous view of the West Palm Beach skyline. The trail is well-maintained and everyone out and about is always friendly! Note: no bathrooms or water fountains along the trail.

.South Palm Park is Lake Worth's oldest incorporated Neighborhood Association in the City of Lake…read moreWorth. It was established in 1963 to preserve this historic neighborhood located on he intracoastal from overdevelopment. The South Palm Park neighborhood is comprised of around 200 homes of various price points that run in a narrow north-south strip between Federal Highway and the Intracoastal Waterway. The homes date back to the 1920's when the earliest pioneers moved into the area to be closer to the city. Growth continued in the neighborhood in the 1930s, '40s and '50s. The South Palm Park neighborhood is named for this passive park located at the east end of 11th Ave South. The park has open areas for play, a beach to launch non motorized watercraft onto the intracoastal, a playground, picnic tables, and grill. The views of the water are stunning. This is a true neighborhood park without any outside parking. You can try to park on the side of the road but you can tell from the people walking in that this park is only used by the South Palm neighborhood.

There is ample free parking available in the shopping center adjacent to the beach. Said shopping center also provides many food and drink options. The beach itself is enormous, and even at its most crowded you don't find yourself stumbling over people to find a spot. There's a small line of palm trees towards the back where you can steal some free shade from the glaring Florida sun. If those spots are taken they offer chair, umbrella and chair/tent/canopy rental options. I believe I heard $28 for the day for a 2 chair/canopy combo, but don't quote me on it. The water is clear, clean and amazing. The beach itself is also very clean, with soft sand and a plethora of seashells lying about. Lifeguards are on duty, but not too overzealous. There are also bathrooms, and showering facilities available. Do yourself a favor- if you're looking for a public beach in the vicinity, make this your destination. Thank me later.
