Details
Being able to walk beneath the sea grapes and relax on this natural beach is the reason that Delnor-Wiggins State Park gets packed with sun-worshipers, especially on weekends. The park closes if the parking lots are full.
The 166-acre park is squeezed by urban development but is so thickly canopied by tropical vegetation that it’s easy to lose yourself in nature here. A short nature trail leads to an observation deck over mangrove forests and the sweep of beach, where terns and gulls gather in groups. It’s easy to find pretty seashells along the shore if you arrive early. Bring a picnic and spend the day!
