I am a local and go to this beach very often. The restrooms are good and there is a outside shower. We enjoy taking our kayak and fishing. There are kayak, chair and umbrella rentals. Parking is $5 ( or a yearly local pass is $75) More

Love this park and the little beach at the end of the causeway. Perfect spot to relax and unwind, however it can be quite busy on the weekends. More

Have been going to this beach for over 30 years; best view; even worth the $ 5 parking fee they now charge. More

My family went on vacation every year and we went here. Now we go to sunset beach because this one is the least attractive. There is seaweed everywhere and no shells to be found. It is clearly man made and now gets way too crowded. Very disappointing. More

Loved the kayaks, food, beach, people, etc. The natural beauty was amazing, also the fishing. More

We have been visiting Howard Park (from Cedar Key) for the past 10 years. Yesterday we made our yearly visit and were shocked at what we found. In the past the park was always very pristine.....the bathrooms were spotless and the grounds were beautifully kept.....well it seems that since the park was "upgraded" all that has come to an end....

You could grab a sunset there though. If you're thinking beach there are better ones close by such as in Dunedin or Clearwater. Now a $5 charge to get in. More

A great place to have a family picnic. Close to the beach. A great place to drive in and just see the sights. More

This is the beach were we generally take our grandchildren when they visit. It has nice sand, excellent parking and is convenient.. More
