    I've never been to this beach, but now I am! The perfect place to spend a hot Florida day. There are clean bathrooms, a playground, free parking, showers, a lifeguard & clean restrooms. The turtles are nesting. Unfortunately there is a lot of smelly seaweed. Once we got past the piles of seaweed the water was warm, clean & delicious .

    I took my Long Island family here for a few hours to enjoy the beautiful ocean breeze and beach. Even though the weather wasn't promising for the day and rain was in the forecast, we chanced having a nice day. It was wonderful regardless. The beach is clean and the parking is free. There are bathrooms but no food concessions. The biggest negative is that there is no handicap ramp. Because of that my husband can't join us on the beach. In this day and age, it's sad that this is not being changed.

    What a great public beach in Boynton. It's so nice there. We watch the sunrise the other morning and have a glorious time.

    Bridge area towards the beach.

    My first time at this beach and I immediately thought afterwards, how come I have not known at this place sooner. Was I living under a rock? This is so close to home, it's small, quiet, clean, and amazing. Plenty of parking space at 9am on a Saturday morning. The walk from parking lot to beach was not far. There's a lifeguard right there close by. The water rinse off area was actually shooting out good pressure of water. Hate it when rinse areas at other beaches doesn't work or comes out with 3 droplets. I think this is now my go to beach area. Love it. We had an amazing time.

    This is honestly the best hidden gem, and I am so happy someone told us about it! My boyfriend and I love going to the beach to relax and read our books. This spot is perfect and is very quiet, so we can enjoy ourselves without dealing with a lot of commotion. The best part is FREE PARKING! You definitely won't find that anywhere in Broward. We have been here a few times, and have noticed that it does get a little crowded later in the day. Your best bet would be to come in the morning to ensure you'll find a parking spot. We bring our chairs and lay out right by the water. There is a lifeguard on duty, so we feel safe if we decide to venture into the water. Walking from the parking lot to the beach, you follow the wooden path through trees. There are picnic tables and grills that are open to the public. At the end of the trail, going straight takes you to a kid's playground, and going right takes you to the beach. I love this place so much! You'll probably find me here at least every weekend if the weather is good!

    This a beautiful 6.83 acre beach front park. Parking is free which is amazing since there isn't free beach parking to be found in Broward County. A boardwalk takes you from the parking lot to the base of a small hill. After a not steep climb you come to the top where there is a playground, a restroom, showers and picnic tables. There is also steps that take you past the lifeguard station and down to the 600 foot beach. It is a bit of a hike if you need to carry a bunch of things with you so I recommend traveling light. The park and beach are meticulously maintained. I didn't see so much as a speck of garbage anywhere. Close to shore are shallow reefs off shore for snorkeling. There is also a larger deeper reef 50 to 100 feet off shore that would require a dive flag. This park is an amazing find if you are looking for a relaxing beach day.

    Beautiful pathway

    I stopped in here on the way home from West Palm Beach recently. I was impressed with how clean park was. There was an officer in a vehicle for security in the parking lot and plenty of life guards on the beach. The property was in pristine condition. I got as far as the life guard station, saw the water and a nearby siren went off indicating that lightning was imminent. The staff asked everyone to leave the beach area for 20 minutes. I was in a hurry to get home so I didn't wait. I will be back to discover more about this hidden gem of a beach.

    This is a great little park and beach with free parking. There is a playground, restrooms, picnic tables, grills, beach, and a lifeguard station. It usually isn't crowded, and I almost hate to leave a review because I like it that way!

    This is my favorite beach in palm beach county. The only con about this beach is that it sometimes can get crowded and be hard to find parking but when you do park and make the trek to the beach it's well worth it.

    My new favorite beach spot in Boynton. Found it by chance during a visit earlier this year driving up the A1A from Delray and couldn't wait to return during my more recent visit to the area. Weekdays it is easy to get a parking space (woo hoo for free parking!). The grassy picnic area is well maintained and picturesque with two entrances to the beach via stairwells. There is a lifeguard on duty, very clean sand and water that was clear to the bottom. Basically like a Caribbean beach right there waiting for you. Can't ask for much more. Plus bathrooms and outdoor showers, so you can change clothes, clean up, etc. Love it!

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.

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!

It was a great playground and my daughter used to play on it when she was a child. Through the years the playground began to decay and it become dangerous with nails sticking out of the wood. When the old playground was demolished part of the castle structure was saved and moved to another playground. The new playground is part of the 16 acre Town Square project, a mixed use development that will include town hall, library, fire station, cultural venter, children's museum, amphitheater, green space, public art, and much more. The new playground was designed to make it easier for parents to keep an eye on their kids, something that was difficult in the old playground. The playground has climbing structures and slides. I especially love the large butterfly wings and grasses that are inspired by nature. The kids looked like they were having a blast today on the playground during the Pirate and Mermaid Festival. When they redid the park I'm glad they decided to save the large Kapok tree which provides much needed shade.

I was so excited to check out this newly built playground, and I could not have been more disappointed. There is just no way this playground was planned with input from experts or parents :( One of the main problems is that this 1 playground is actually separated into 2 playgrounds, 1 for younger children and one for older children. This would be fine if they were adjacent, but they are not; in fact, one playground cannot be seen from the other! Instead they are separated by a sidewalk (not fenced in and completely open to the road,) and due to a tall building and a slight corner turn, there is no way to see one playground from the other playground and vice versa. Therefore, 1 parent or caretaker cannot separate different aged children and watch both at the same time. Thus, the little playground is empty - because there is nothing here for older kids to do, while the older kid playground is chock full of little children, who are stuck with their older siblings. Not only are the littles using playground equiptment that is too old for them, several spinning apparatus consistently knocked over the younger kids once the piece started spinning. Also, the little playground is a bigger space than the older kids playground, despite all the kids being on the bid kid playground. Parent seating: there is no place for parents inside the fenced playground. There are benches placed outside of the fence for the parents, which is a terrible terrible practice. Now kids are falling over crying and their parents are on a bench outside of the playground. Lack of gate signs: The entrances to the gate of the playground are unmarked. Not a single sign or indicator or where or how to open the playground gate doors. Thus, it is very difficult to get in if you are a parent sitting on an outside bench, because the entire gate looks the same. Lack of signage: there are no signs on the little playground that faces the adjacent playground that indicates: name of playground, what the hours of the playground are, etc. Nothing! considering that the playground fence is physically attached to the back of the Old School Museum building, it is very unclear that this is in fact a public playground open to anyone, instead of a privately owned playspace. Also, there are no signs at each individual playground sharing the info that the other playground is around the corner. More poor planning: inside the big kids playground is a fenced storage area. This is not for kids, but for some reason it is actually inside of their fenced in playground. This makes absolutely no sense. Presumable some non-kid-friendly items live inside here, perhaps a trash bin or tools or chemicals? It would be so so easy for bored kids to climb this fence and go inside, or for someone to leave the door cracked or unlocked. I have never ever seen such strange planning for adult equipment to be kept inside a play space for kids. This playground is across from city hall and adjacent to municipal buildings, yet the only place for this hazardous stuff is inside the playground? Poor equipment: this playground may have been only a year old and already there is rust marks on most of the climbing material, one of the 2 very popular spinning pieces are broken. Also, the equipment is just not that fun. Having so many individual play pieces causes frustration and competition amongst the kids, and it would have made more sense to have communal pieces. This has to be some of the worst and unimaginitive play pieces I've seen of any playgrounds ever. And, no swings. And more: Lots of empty space inside, with zero nature, no trees or anything and no shade at all either.
