Today the park was a bit crowded, I guess because it was the day after the holiday. The day was beautiful and the park was nice.

This was a charming beach "park" in Lauderdale By The Sea. I was actually upset that I hadn't found…read morethis place sooner. My contact at the town, however, told me that the grassy area used to be a parking lot years ago and most of the amenities were added within the last ten years. There's resident permit parking right out front and metered parking just across the street. As you walk along the sidewalk there are colorfully painted Adirondack chairs -- two per -- under umbrellas. And a shade pavilion with chairs. At the beach entrance are various signs with information. No dogs are allowed nor is cigarette smoking on the beach. The park is open 7 am - 10 pm. There's a display with life jackets hanging from it in case someone needs to borrow one. And some info re rip currents and water safety. Two shower towers are at the entrance, too. There are bottom water spouts for washing the sand off your feet after the beach, as well. One of the nicest things was the beach access path. There are two entrances to the beach and one is covered in a hard mesh -- perfect for wheel chairs or wheeled carts or if you have trouble walking. I took a short walk out to the beach itself. It's wide with clean, white sand here. Mid week it wasn't busy with visitors. Talk about a "chamber of commerce" picture! I couldn't resist taking a short video. We truly live in paradise and this park proves it.

This is a park in the Twin Lakes North neighborhood of Ft. Lauderdale. The neighborhood is known…read morefor being a peaceful, family-friendly, and walkable area. The neighborhood was formerly part of the Twin Lakes CDP, but Twin Lakes North was annexed into Fort Lauderdale in 2005. This park is only a quarter of an acre which makes it a pocket park. Pocket parks are generally less than a half acre in size and can have different amenities for the public. This type of mini park arose from a desire in communities to have places for kids to play instead of another building or wasted vacant land. Thanks to the Fort Lauderdale Parks Bond Program this park is looking great. The voters approved an increase in taxes in order to pay for park improvements throughout the city. Three hundred thousand dollars were used to improve lighting and install a new shade covered playground by Burke. The park also has a water fountain, walkways, benches, and tables. Twin Lakes North Park is an inviting play space for children but it is also a great place to picnic outside. Note that there is no parking or restrooms.

There's plenty of activities here ranging from sports, recreational gatherings, dog walking, nature stroll and more so I decided to scope it out. While the dog park itself is small, the park is large enough for you to venture outside of the enclosed dog area and take your pup for a stroll. There was plenty of lighting and people were still around yet it wasn't excessively loud which is exactly what I was looking for. They did seem to have some interesting playgrounds that with a few that seemed rather futuristic. It's not the easiest to get around because the signs are kinda dim and there's no large map at the entrance but it's not large enough to get fully lost in. We got to scope out the full moon and take a brisk walk before continuing our night. Not a bad option at all. I do like when parks are open late with the safety of police presence.

It's such a great green space right in the middle of the city that is home to the Florida Panthers with the recent addition of the Baptist Health Iceplex and the Federal restaurant and the newly renovated Jimmy Evert tennis center.

Lots of free parking and benches dotted throughout the park for relaxing and enjoyment. Weekends are super busy with peewee games/practices but usually quiet during the weekday mornings and afternoons. Come here often and or early enough during spring training and you might get a glimpse of professional athletes training.
