5 /5 Laura Bergner Owens: Great natural area with an accessible boardwalk across the lagoon to the barrier island part of the park. Pick up some free park guides at the gift shop before you head out to the barrier island.
All the staff & volunteers we encountered were FANTASTIC! They happily shared insights into the property and had helpful suggestions.
Theres also a tram that will take you back and forth across the boardwalk.
Great nature center. Ask to see the movie if it isnt already playing. We were the only ones there and the staff offered to put it in for us. Well worth it and you can take 15 minutes to cool off.
The gift shop has a nice variety of beach gear & necessities, lots of fun things at decent prices for souvenirs.
Lots of clean restrooms and free parking.
