Greynolds Park is one of those underrated Miami outdoor spaces that feels like a quiet escape…read morewithout ever leaving the city. We spent the day wandering its winding trails on a relaxed family hike, surrounded by lush greenery and just enough shade to forget you're in South Florida. The best time to go is between January and March, when the air is crisp, the sun is gentle, and you can actually enjoy being outdoors without battling heat exhaustion. What made the day even better was the atmosphere. The park wasn't overcrowded, and everyone seemed to share the same unspoken understanding: slow down, breathe, and enjoy the space. It felt calm, respectful, and genuinely restorative. Afterward, the experience flowed seamlessly into the nearby plaza, which is full of charming, niche restaurants and unique shops.

The park offers kayak rentals also. I didn't see any decernable walking trail which I like in a park; however, Greynolds is still a nice little park by the bay that you can get some quiet time and just kind of look out and observe the water.

It is now an inviting…read moreoutdoor destination thanks to a new design by architect William Lane who prioritized creating a space for both activity and leisure. After significant construction, the park reopened to the public on December 15, 2024. 96th Street Park is located on Indian Creek so there is scenic water views. During the upgrades to the park, a multipurpose field, state-of-the-art playground equipment, and a full-size basketball court were added. There is also a new LEED Silver-certified multi story municipal community center, Thrive 250 fitness equipment, and a kayak launch. Shade structures, fencing, advanced lighting solutions, landscaping, and comprehensive irrigation systems were also added to the park. The city holds many of its resident events here like a Winter Wonderland and Spring Egg Hunt. With its fresh design and new features, this park is a premier gathering space for the community. Whether you're looking to engage in sports, enjoy water activities, or simply relax in a beautiful setting, this modern park has something for everyone.

We've been visiting this park since we moved here four years ago. This is not our favorite park,…read moreas it tends to get very crowded at times. But the tree shade is a rare plus. We usually stop by when we're walking to or from Surfside. We visited midday on a Saturday when I took these photos and there was only one other family there, so it was a very pleasant experience. The shade under the trees gives you a breezy and cool feel on a hot summer day. The equipment at this park is a bit outdated and needs an upgrade, in my opinion. Our son loves the basketball courts and they also have a very large soccer field (grassy area) to play on. The Surfside community has many events here for residents only, which we are unable to attend since we live across the bridge. :-P

This North Miami neighborhood was mainly built between 1940-1967, and homes were designed in various architectural styles including Art Deco and Modern. This neighborhood is on Biscayne Bay. Amenities at Keystone Park include basketball courts, a multi use field, a tiki hut, and a shade covered playground with synthetic turf. The playground is named for Joseph "Joe" Weil, a resident and city activist. The pickle ball courts are a popular feature of this park. The sport, which is a cross between table tennis, badminton, and tennis, was invented by three vacationers on Bainbridge Island, near Seattle, in 1965. There are now 36.5 million pickleball players in the U.S and it was named the fastest growing sport in the U.S. in 2024. The courts are available on a first come, first serve basis and you can check out balls and paddles from the community center. Parking is a little scarce around the park but Flanigans has overflow parking across the street and noticed some people using that. Based on the number of people here, Keystone park is a popular North Miami recreational resource.

Ahoy Matey! Did you know there is a pirate themed playground in Altos Del Mar Park in Miami Beach?…read moreGather up the crew and anchors away for the most almost free fun a fledgling pirate can have. You still have to pay for parking. I recommend the parking lot next door. The Pirate Park Playground was built by Superior Playgrounds who was tasked with designing a one-of-a-kind pirate theme play space to spark creative play and provide a safe place for budding buccaneers to play. The playground is made of recycled material like milk jugs and was created to be corrosion resistant so that it would always look good in this salt water coastal ecosystem. Located only 100 feet from the beach, the playground is fenced in for safety. There is a large pirate ship for older children to climb on and slide down and a smaller area for younger privateers. The crows nest with rigging looked especially fun to climb. Other playground play structures include clownfish and blue tang fish spring riders, a custom octopus playhouse, and palm tree shade. There are four triangle sail shades and poured-in-place safety surfacing to protect little knees and bottoms. Bathrooms are nearby. During my visit the playground was filled with kids and their families enjoying the nautical theme. This unique play space fosters imagination and physical movement for the youngest North Beach residents and visitors.
