We accidentally found this gem just 7 min from our house one day. It quickly became our favorite park for the remainder of our time in Jacksonville. It’s a beautiful park to walk around, feel the breeze of the St. Johns River, do some fishing on the dock, or enjoy lunch at one of the picnic tables. Daddy and the girls spotted a couple of manatees during one of their visits. At this park the girls have enjoyed walking the trail, riding their bikes, looking at the boats on the St. Johns River, pushing one another on the swinging bench, and having a picnic lunch. It’s definitely a hidden gem in Jacksonville worth visiting.
