Confirmed from Oceanfront 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.

Nice walking area, fishing spot under tiki hut, place to launch kayak. Good bathrooms. Plus, it's free 😀
We found this place by accident. It showed up as a kayak launch sort of park on Google and we were hoping to find something like a beach. This place had been damaged by Irma (2018 hurricane) and some of it was roped off but it was amazing! We enjoy natural views and this was exactly that.
We love visiting oceanfront Park. It's nice to have the shade from the tiki huts while we fish, plus there's a nice walking trail. It could use a bit of cleaning up bit it's not bad. Plus we got to see a bunch of manatees!
Came to check out the fishing area. Although, we didn't fish here, it was an interesting place to visit. Walked the boardwalk path, scenic. Dog park also. Bathroom facilities.
