About
Korte feiten: Shaded live oaks and palm trunks frame a narrow waterfront green where picnic blankets compete with morning anglers and quiet dog walkers. Golden-hour light turns the calm bay into a glassy mirror that local photographers flock to, producing some of the most-shared neighborhood images.
Hoogtepunten: Low, salt-kissed breezes carry the scent of frying fish and citrus while white herons, snowy egrets, and brown pelicans hunt the shallows, adding a slow, graceful choreography to the shoreline. You can usually spot 10 to 15 colorful kayaks and small boats tied along the edge, volunteers swapping sponge-dock stories as a weathered bench faces a streak of western sunset.
Insider tips
- Wear sunscreen and a hat, the waterfront offers little shade during midday.
- Bring a folding chair or blanket for the pier and lawn, seating is limited.
- Walk toward the western edge at sunset for the best photos of boats and reflections.
- Visit on weekday mornings to avoid weekend crowds and local fishing activity.
