Confirmed from Ocean Ridge Hammock Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Accessed by a wooded trail, this secluded area offers an unguarded beach area, swimming & fishing.
What runners say about Ocean Ridge Hammock Park
“They have tubs if you want to help clean the beach.”
“There are a limited number of parking spaces so it can be challenging to get there, But an absolutely beautiful spot”
“Had a peaceful walk on a Sunday morning exploring this location.”
Free parking across the street. Not a super busy beach. Cute walk through the woods. TONS of seaweed on the beach and in the water. If you don’t like seaweed getting tangled in between ur toes and around your legs then this is not the beach for you.
We were walking on the A1A with baby girl. We stop there only to sit and eat something. It was peaceful and beautiful. This place is a little oasis. Second visit in 2025 ! Always parking in the morning.
This park is beautiful! The beach was so peaceful and clean. The hidden trail to walk and go to the beach is so cool! Is completely surrounded trees and nature! Best place to relax for sure!
Great place for a moment of peace and Calm. Parking lot across the way is free and has 25 spots if you can get rhem them. Walk to beach is nice with trees and zig zag path.
