My…read morelast complaint was about the park, but they luckily have taken it out and put a splash pad there for kids to enjoy, which is so wonderful. I feel like more and more people are starting to realize Ormond Beach is better than Daytona so the parking lot is more packed. Overall, we still had a great trip. I love the sand on this coast. It's coarse and darker in color. And for being so close to New Smyrna I can never find shark teeth.

More of a public beach parking facility, the park does have restrooms that are kept very clean and are spacious. There are also a few outdoor showers and a few picnic tables along with several benches for watching the world go by while taking in the sea breeze. Get here early. Parking usually fills up right away. Especially on the weekend. But if you get a spot, have a cooler with food and non-alcoholic beverages, and some beach chairs, umbrellas or a canopy, this is a great place for bringing the family, significant other, or just yourself.

Protected land = no running water. Therefore, no flushing and no rinsing. It's a tradeoff I'll accept for the natural splendor present. Great place to watch the close by rocket launches. The Eddy Creek side is an ideal vantage point for viewing manatees and gators. There are also multiple nearby nature trails. I have the annual pass, which is worth it for me. All accesses were open on my most recent visit, but that varies. If you want to spice up your life, go all the way down to #10-13, the nude portion. For beaches, my heart belongs to the Gulf Coast side of FL, but Playalinda offers a unique opportunity to commune with nature, setting it apart.

One of the workers in the gift shop gave us an intro when we bought our tickets. You should definitely start across the street at the hotel/museum. That hotel/house has history all its own aside from the lighthouse. The family that lived there and ran it. I loved the house and it seems to have stayed in great condition after hundreds of years. In the hotel/house, you start with a short movie in the side room and then you can tour the house at your leisure. The house has multiple items displayed from over the years. There are also boards with a bit of history as you make your way through. Outside of the hotel/house is a relaxing area by the water. You could relax there or it'd be a perfect place for a wedding or special occasion. Once finished there, you can make your way back across the street to the lighthouse. On the lighthouse side, there are other buildings where people that took care of the place stayed. There's also a small storybook trail. It's not long at all but it has these storyboards around it talking about this cat named Nelly. That's all fun and stuff... but at the end of the trail, you see a little cat graveyard with cats that have been on the property over the years. When we walked up and I noticed Nelly was already buried! THE HORRRRRRRRRRORRRRRRR! On to the lighthouse; You can climb up to the top of the lighthouse. I think there is a sign that mentions 222 steps or something. It gets very steep near the top. Great exercise and it made me forget all about the cat graveyard. It's a cool place. I was intrigued by the Cincinnati Reds connection too. Other notables: Across the street is a restaurant and ice cream place. I don't think those two spots are related to the lighthouse itself but it's nice that they're there. We tried out both and they weren't bad at all. We didn't venture further down the road but we were told more restaurants/locations are further down. If you like history or inlets or just lighthouses, check out this place if you're in the area.

The beach itself was pretty small, and it was crowded. The water wasn't too rough. There were a lot of kids and families, so clearly a good place for the kids to swim. My favorite part were all of the dogs. There were so many puppers on the beach! Overall, I'll give it a 3. It was fine, but I wouldn't go out of my way to go here for a beach day.
