We went there in the morning after breakfast. If you want to just sit, relax and have a quiet time, while enjoying the sea, then you can try this place. While the place seems small, it is equipped with bathroom, drinking water fountain and benches.
There were rocks along the coastline so it may not be a good option for swimming, but its a good option for picnic while enjoying sunset.

Gorgeous sunsets and a fun, daily ritual! get there early to grab a seat on one of the benches or on the pier. The park fills up quickly. It’s fun to watch throngs of people walk and bike their way to Sunset Park. We were fortunate to stay right next door and just walk over.

Nice small park area with beautiful views. It’s definitely more park than beach. So, we headed over to Sombrero beach to catch the sunset with the sand and water between our toes. But Sunset Park is a good spot for people with dogs too. We saw several people with dogs. The dogs could also more easily get over the rocks to enjoy a splash.

So this is Sept when apparently sea grass comes to vacation in the Keys. Our hotel beach was crap because management wouldn’t clean it of Dead Sea grass (altho the property right beside us was cleaned!) so we walked around the corner to Sunset Park and were delighted to find it was clean and beautiful.
The problem???
NO SWIMMING!!! Altho the beach is almost completely clean and there is easy entry for all ages into the water.
If you want to come eat a sandwich on the picnic tables in the sweltering sun, go to Sunset Park. Otherwise, get in the car and drive somewhere else to cool off.

We went to many different spots in the Keys but found this gem to have our wedding. There are many different backdrops that you could use depending on what you want your wedding to consist of. We could have been on the pier, we could have been on the beach but we chose a Sandy spot in the palm trees. Got our permit from Key Colony to have our small event in advance. Brought our own Arch and little ceremony table. Had our guys rearrange a few park benches so that our guests could sit. And the pictures are just gorgeous what can I say.

This is an excellent place in marathon to catch the sunset. I thought being on the east side of the road we wouldn’t get a sunset- but I was wrong. You get a great sunset here too. Parking is a little limited. Plan ahead.

Went to this park after having dinner at Key Colony Inn and the sunset views were amazing! Lots of benches to sit on to enjoy the view with public restrooms. small little beach was so clean and I even had a stingray swim right by me when I had my feet in the water. Gets crowded at Sunset but I know why it has itś name - definitely not to miss if in Marathon.

Very small but beautiful little park. Very well kept with a few places to just sit and enjoy the views. It has a small pier that was very recently refurbished. We could see the tiny fish around the pier. Lots of boat traffic passing by. Boating channel very close to park. No fishing or swimming allowed at this park. We were there around 2pm on Sunday and no one was there. It’s located in a very nice upscale neighborhood.
We were exploring the different parks , so we wasn’t there very long but I could have stayed there all day.

Beautiful little park to catch the sunset. We were staying 2 blocks away and rode our bikes to the park. It was super clean, had lots of benches to sit and enjoy the view, and there's a pier to go out over the water. There's not really much of a beach, but you can get on the rocks and get your feet wet. If you're looking for a chill spot to watch the sunset though, this is the place.

Good park to just sit and watch the boats or to take photos. Lots of Palm trees and rocks along with a pier to walk out on. This is not a swimming beach due to the strong current and I’m not sure why you couldn’t fish here. It’s worth the stop to see the views and watch a sunset.

Is the actual beach dog friendly? Is there any off leash areas in The area?
Written September 9, 2016
Small beach with leash ordinance that no one pays attention to as long as dogs are friendly. However, one complaint will get you ticketed.

Hi,
Sunset beach park looks gorgeous for a wedding. I'm wondering how do you contact them to set up the wedding there? I'm getting married next summer and would love to contact this location but i'm having trouble.
Written August 24, 2016
Since Key Colony Beach is a municipality, I would start with Key Colony Beach city call. It is a very friendly place, and if it's something they can allow, I'm sure they will work with you for your beautiful wedding. Best of luck to you!

Hi, looking for ideas for reception location after a wedding ceremony on Sunset Park Beach.
Can anyone give me ideas?
Written July 19, 2016
Key Colony Inn has a perfect room for a reception. It is a very short walk from Sunset Park
