Beautiful Scenic Park with a view of the city of Sarasota. Enjoy a picnic, cook a dinner and come out and have it by the water. that is a great past memory with someone special.

This little park is one of the nicest in the county. However, it is small and has limited parking. A lot of times, there is NO parking available. None. The view here is really beautiful. It sits right next to the main Sarasota bridge, so theres a lot of traffic and traffic noise.

This is one of my favorite places to come because it is easy to get to, quick, has ample parking and great views. You can launch your paddle board our kayak from here. There are lots of bikers, joggers and walkers. Plenty of benches along the way. The water is usually tranquil. There is a lot of traffic noise because you are directly on the roadway. Id add to be careful for falling coconuts. There are plenty of coconut palms. And tons of birds.This is actually known as Bird Key Park and with good reason. There are lots of fish and fishing birds. Youll see pelican, osprey, sea gulls, ibis, egret, heron, tern and roseate spoonbills from time to time.

Beautiful area and clean with garbage cans available.However I would think that someone should mark the area near the water as being very slippery or roped off. I slipped and fell hard concrete scraping and cutting my hands knees and legs pretty badly.

AKA Bird Key Park. Great place to stop for a picnic, launch a kayak or paddleboard or do some fishing under the bridge. Scenic for sunsets too.

The new round-a-bout seems a bit dangerous. The trek across the bridge was as pleasant as always.

I love the paved side walks along the water & the beautiful landscaping. I also enjoy taking photos of the wild life & nature along my walks. I gave it a 4 because there is no bathrooms close bye & there are no covered tables to get out of the rain. Plastic benches might be a bit more comfortable for us older people. Grrreat park for the whole family though!

Very pretty... Can see the entire downtown skyline! Great way to kill some time as you can walk along the base of the bridge.... Watch the lights change subtly.

A place to relax very quiet and peaceful especially under the bridge there is a small playgrounds there is a place to buy bait for fishing on site $5 for squid it is challenging for people who are handicapped to get around there is ample parking that is free but the handicap sites make for a long roll handicap parking is available so if you want a peaceful play to bring your kids this is the ideal place

Review №48

Nice bridge to run over. Locals and resident own dogs, so be careful running in the dark. You may step on dog poop, so run in the light. 1 mile from light to light. So, jogging over the bridge a d returning back over the bridge would equal 2 miles.

I want to give it one star so it lowers in popularity, because I love this place! Dog friendly, great views and good fishing (If you know what youre doing) But if I did, it would be unfair. Everyone deserves a trophy and Ringling bridge causeway park AKA Bird Key Park are Our trophies to offer here in Sarasota.
