    Small laid back park off Las Olas. Family friendly always keeping and eye on the kids because there's no guard rail between park and water.

    Great park! Nice open area with a walkway to the water. Benches scattered throughout the area. Beautiful trees, lots of boats going by. There is a free community book box that you can pick a book to read and also donate a book to. Great quite spot

    On my last day of visiting Fort lauderdale from michigan I walked to this park after having lunch at a near by restaurant on los olas Blvd. l absolutely loved it. Watching the beautiful boats come in and listening to the wild parrots singing in the trees. A wonderful place to relax.

    A tiny but beautiful little park along the waterside. We spent quite a while watching people fishing and the boats going by. Whilst there’s not lots to do it was a peaceful spot just off the centre road through Fort Lauderdale. Would highly recommend for a peaceful few minutes.

    What a beautiful little park. I actually had the pleasure to officiate a wedding there and was amazed at how cute and special this little park is.

    My Favorite Park for Picnics & Relaxing. The people who frequent the park are really nice and everyone does their due diligence in keeping it clean. Not much parking but there are options across the street. It's also off of Las Olas so you're in walking distance to popular restaurants and bars.

    This park is absolutely beautiful, peaceful, quiet and relaxing. The scenic waterfront views are immaculate with views of the gorgeous mansions directly facing you. The breeze makes you feel like you're floating on air. The park is super clean. Ideal for romantic dates, picnics, yoga, meditation and relaxing. The neighborhood is also beautiful and close to Las Olas Blvd for shopping, restaurants and walking. A must see when visiting Ft. Lauderdale

    This small, well-maintained and incredibly serene park is a hidden treasure right behind bustling Las Olas Boulevard. If you love cool ocean breezes, plenty of shade, peace and quiet, beautiful tropical flora, and a place to read, picnic, rest, or view every manner of sea vessel navigating the deep blue sea, then this is your place! You will find a few spaces in front where you can park for free for three hours. At the entrance is a little box for book exchanges, and the lovely brick paths lead you to benches strategically placed around the park for water viewing. Someone brought a hammock the other day and was sleeping in the shade. Nurses were enjoying a quiet lunch together, while another family gathered for a picnic with their young children. I simply love it here. Kudos to the City of Fort Lauderdale workers who were there tidying up, always with smiles and pleasant greetings for everyone. Bring your camera as the sights along the water are stunning!

    Cool little park. Parking is a bit limited but I believe you can take the water taxi to get here in style 😉. From stop 2 it's a short and pleasant walk.

    We love this park. It's usually quiet and peaceful. There are several seats available if you don't bring your own. Bring a picnic and enjoy a lovely afternoon watching the boats pass on the New River. If you like to watch birds then this is a great place to see parrots in the wild. Relax and listen to the local conure flocks play overhead. Watch as they enter and leave their nesting caverns in the oak trees above. There are even a couple businesses that provide complete picnic experiences for reasonable fees. This is a very nice place to hangout for hours.

    A friend showed me this park a few years ago and I fell in love. Such a peaceful area and it has a little library that you scan read books from. I also do yoga here with my instructor on certain days! Best of all, you're right on Las Olas Blvd so you can go get food and drinks just down the street!

    Really nice water front park. This is an historic area. The tree here is amazing to look at it’s the one located right across from the plaque. There are benches here to sit on and a place to park your bikes. There is parking for vehicles. It’s just a nice place to spend any part of your day.

    You will never in your life find a better place to relax. This park is incredible, and is at least 15 degrees cooler than anywhere in Ft. Lauderdale. If there's a breeze it comes off the waterway like air conditioning. No joking. Plenty of space to just kick back, stay cool, see beautiful yatchs and just chill.

    I love this place. Really quiet place. But last time we left early because some peoples make like a party and bring a music device playing annoying music.

    What a gem of a park on the New River. Beautiful breezes and so much fun to watch the boats go past. Definitely a fantastic place to relax, picnic, or just meditate.

    A nice lil park to stop while taking a stroll by the river walk. Couple of park benches and seats with nice grassy spots with lots of shade on a sunny day. 🌞

  • 4/5 Mrs S. 1 year ago on Google
    Went here for a picnic in the park. Pretty small but it was nice. Great views of the lake and yachts passing by. Area for hammocks. It did get busy with people coming in and out but everyone was doing their own thing so it was fine. Wojld recommend for a nice walk or picnic in the park.

  • 5/5 Paul H. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a very quiet and peaceful park in the heart of Colee Hammock next to Las Olas Blvd. I plan to have a few picnics with my wife there soon.

  • 5/5 Manny P. 1 year ago on Google
    Very small park nestled in between 8 figure homes. We went here NOT to people watch but to yacht watch lol. There was many beautiful yachts being towed to sea

  • 5/5 Lois G. 2 years ago on Google
    It is always so beautiful and peaceful. A chance for everyday people to see our beautiful waterways without having to be wealthy.

  • 5/5 Todd B. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful park on the salt water. Boats go by, big and small. Saw people eating on a blanket with candle light, people doing yoga, and others just relaxing. Seemed to be enough room for everyone but not a huge park. Relaxing atmosphere. Be careful no restrooms. I was there for the N.A meeting on Sunday evening. Alot of cleantime there. About fifty people show up. Great meeting and a beautiful park
