$4 for car and occupants. Wonderfully rugged. Head for the Main Beach for the sandy side otherwise the other beaches are a little rocky. Great for sunsets.

Liked the secludedness of the beach, small waves-perfect for my kids, the cafe was yummy and there were lots of shells to be found. We've already decided we'll be back to this spot in the near future!!

I visited this park so I could catch the ferry to Calidesi Island (which is totally worth going). The best part of my visit to this park was watching numerous dolphins in the inlet of water between Honeymoon Island and Calidesi Island. Way better than any boat tour you can take! The beach was very rocky in some areas so... More

Sand at the main beach is fine and white. Rocky in some parts, with lots of shells for shell hunting. The main beach was crowded on a weekday. This beach was nice but doubtful this beach would be my main beach if I lived in the area. If I had a do over, I'd rent kayaks right before the gate... More

Lots of trails to hike on and enjoy the outdoors. Earth Day celebration going on while there which was pretty cool. Making of Rain barrels and such. You can fish, enjoy the beach, hike or just relax. Nice place to visit

It costs money to enter, but worth it to see a Florida beach kept in a more natural state. If you want fine raked sand and a tourist beach go to Clearwater (where you will pay for parking). Honeymoon Island has more natural beach areas, picnic areas, and a two mile nature trail loaded with wildlife - osprey, armadillos, tortoises,... More

Entrance fee for a car with 1 person is $4; for a honeymooner additional $4? This pricing is good for a family or groups; but not for a couple! ($8 up to 8 occupants) Instead of entering in this beach we chose Siesta key!

This beach is clean, beautiful, and the setting is wilderness, although it's only a half a mile from residences. It's beautifully maintained, has many services (umbrellas, food, bathhouse) as well as lots of beaches -- get away from the crowds, go to Honeymoon Island!

The water there is beautiful with a gradual slope to deeper water. Cool to be able to swim the dogs there and always meet some real nice folks.
