    This is a park located in Palm Beach county, Lake Harbor, Florida. It's not a large park. In fact…read moreit kind of reminds me of a rest stop on steroids. Maybe because it's like a loop where you can enter at one end and exit at the other. A person could walk the entire length of the park in 30 minutes (or less). There are lots of big shade trees for their many picnic tables. There's a pavilion for large parties (call the number on the display board to reserve) with a small, fenced in playground next to it for the youngsters. There's also a full sized basketball court. Importantly, not far from the entrance there's a block building with restrooms. It's located adjacent to the Herbert Hoover Dike which encircles Lake Okeechobee and was built in response to the great Miami Hurricane of 1926 and the Okeechobee Hurricane of 1928 which killed thousands of people when the Lake breached a small simple earthen dike. It was designed for the purpose of flood control, water conservation, prevention of saltwater intrusion, and preservation of fish and wildlife populations. For the engineers or mechanically inclined, you'll find some old retired pumps on display, that you may find interesting. I enjoyed my brief visit as it gave me a chance to get off my bike and stretch after a long ride. Next time I think I'll walk up onto the dike. Park hours are sunrise to sunset. Dogs must be on a leash. It's worthy of a stop.

    This beautiful huge park is located along the south edge of Lake Okeechobee and adjoins the Lake…read moreOkeechobee Scenic Trail. The park has a basketball court, access for kayaking or canoeing, a large multi-purpose field and several picnic areas with grills. There is a large playground that is suitable for ages 2 to 12. Lots of parking and lots of space. I had a good walk and a nice picnic that was socially distanced and included lots of fresh air. [Review 14812 overall, 314 of 2021, number 1302 in Florida.]

    Civic Park is 4.14 acres. It is located in downtown Clewiston. The park is landscaped with…read morewalkways, a playground, picnic tables, benches, and a gazebo that can be used for weddings. The park is the site of Clewiston's Veterans Day celebrations. It has statues and plaques paying tribute to the men and women of the armed forces. In the center of the park is a memorial honoring the WWII British cadets that were among the 15,000 British troops trained in aerial warfare during WWII in the United States. 23 Royal Air Force Cadets who trained at Riddle Field in Clewiston are buried in Arcadia. British soldiers are buried where they fall so they were buried near where they trained. Nineteen of the airmen were killed in training crashes, two died in car accidents, one died of meningitis, and one from pneumonia. The memorial in the park records the sacrifice made by these soldiers who died so far from home. Their graves are lovingly cared for by the people of Arcadia who honor them every Memorial Day. I had previously learned about the British airmen on a trip to Arcadia so it was very interesting to find the memorial to them in this park. Other events held at the park include the Meet at the Pole celebration, the City Market held the second Saturday of the month from November through April, Sugar Festival Arts and Crafts, and Concerts in the Park. I grabbed a Hawaiian ice from across the street and enjoyed it at the park before heading home. This is a charming place to enjoy an ice or to attend a festival.

    Mackle Park was named in honor of Frank E. Mackle Jr. (1916-1993). Mackle was a developer who had…read morepreviously developed Key Biscayne with his brothers. Frank arrived in what was then a primitive Marco Island in 1962 and saw potential in the undeveloped town. He was soon joined in the venture by his brothers, Elliott and Robert. All of the brothers were engineers and were employed by the Deltona Corporation founded by their father. Frank became the President of the Deltona Corporation and led the modernization of Marco Island. Mackle Park is impressive as it has everything that residents and visitors to Marco Island could want in outdoor recreation. The park has a community center with teen center, basketball court, bocce courts, open field area for play, picnic area, shuffleboard courts, a soccer/football field, volleyball court, and splash pad. One of the standout feature of the park is the creative playground that is a hit with kids. It has a pirate ship, castle turrets, and lots of places to climb and engage in imaginative play. My favorite part of the park is the beautifully landscaped walking path that winds around the lake. A sign at the entrance to the trail shows how you can increase the half mile walk around the lake to .9 miles by incorporating walking the perimeter of the fields in the back of the park. It is perfect for a leisurely stroll or a more vigorous jog. The lake is also a great place to bird watch and fish. Mackle Park has something for everyone. It offers a blend of recreational facilities and natural beauty that makes it a must-visit for anyone in the area. Whether you're looking to let the kids play, enjoy a peaceful walk, or partake in community events or a class, Mackle Park offers it all and more.

    This place is such a hidden gem in Delray Beach! Wakodahatchee Wetlands is packed with wildlife,…read moreand the boardwalk trail makes it easy to soak it all in without disturbing the natural habitat. On my recent visit, there were so many wood storks nesting!! I spotted babies peeking out of nests, along with adults perched on eggs. It felt like stepping into a real-life nature documentary. Beyond the storks, I also saw a marsh rabbit, anhingas, several types of ducks, and even a Great Blue Heron just casually doing its thing. What makes this spot even cooler is that the wetlands are man-made, but they've become a thriving ecosystem--proof that nature finds a way when given the chance. It's free to visit, and there's plenty of parking. Even when it looks full, just be patient--spots open up quickly with people coming and going. The full loop is about ¾ of a mile, with a few covered seating areas along the way if you want to pause and take it all in. Definitely wear a hat, bring water, and don't forget your camera--you'll want it. If you live in or are visiting Palm Beach County, this is 100% worth checking out. Peaceful, scenic, and full of surprises!

While we didn't see any alligators, we did see beautiful iguanas, birds and vegetation! Very well kept park. Many benches and stops for shade if needed. PS it's free!
