Nice little hidden park in Jupiter Kind of like a inlet to the ocean, lots of boaters ... not like the beach, but has area you can swim, picnic areas, has a old home you can explore to see what it was like to live in Florida back in the day before AC and the convenience we take for granted. A great place to relax and watch the boats go out to the ocean, I saw some even fishing!

The kids really enjoyed the touch tank with urchins, sea stars, hermit crabs and even a horse shoe crab. Lots of information to see and read about the Loxahatchee River. Great place to visit. I’d say less than 20-30 minutes per visit.

We decided to make the drive and try out this dog beach. It is a great one to go to because you walk down steps to get to the beach so if your dog happens to run off he isn't getting to the road very easily. Everyone was social distanced and the water was great for us as well. Lots of parking.

We took the nature trail that leads through the marsh & shrubs towards the back. We enjoyed the experience. I recommend this park to anyone who enjoys nature but doesn't want to get lost in it. Advice: wear trail shoes, bring water but don't pollute.
