Sand Key Park is an exquisite beach park located in the west of Clearwater, Florida, USA, reachable from the mainland via the Clearwater bridge followed by the Sand Key bridge towards the south. Despite its beauty, the park often remains undiscovered by tourists.
To gain access to the park, a fee of $5 applies, though it is highly worthwhile. The park boasts several amenities including picnic areas complete with grills, playgrounds, and benches.
What's more, the beach offers beautiful views of diverse fish species, stingrays, and dolphins. It is also common to witness sea turtles visiting the shore to lay eggs, and strict regulations prohibit interfering with these creatures or their nests.
The park is also an excellent bird-watching location, with pelicans and great horned owls among the various species you can catch sight of.
Visitor reviews highlight the peaceful and clean environment, as well as the opportunity to see dolphins at the beach. People enjoyed the shallow water, public restrooms, and covered areas. However, parking fees and crowding on good weather days were common complaints.
