    This is a great park right around the corner of the southernmost point. Plenty of room to relax, watch the ocean, and of course see the steady stream of tourists. If you need a nice place to kick back, this is it.

    Look, it's a pocket park with a beach, a great sunset view, and a bar to grab drinks or eat some quality food. You probably won't spend an entire day here, but it's a nice place to watch a sunset or pop in for a quick little beach experience. Any reviewers complaining about murky water just clearly haven't done their research on the waters and beaches of Key West. This is a great place to step away from the crowds for a bit.

    Nice little park, pier and beach area at the end of Duval Street on the Atlantic side of Key West. Great photo opportunities of parasailing, beach and park. Good place to take a break from the hustle and bustle of KW and just sit on a bench and eat an ice cream from the corner store. Enjoy we did.

    Drove all the way down here last weekend. I wanted to be at the lowest State in the USA and get some Vit D. I stood at the end of this Doc and sang as loud as I could Reckless love by Asbury. I prayed to God for Guidance in life, I prayed to not only help myself of my challenges but also So I can be a Stable guide to help lift up those who are under repression and attack. I dedicated my life to help those who feel helpless.

    Explore all places in the keys when you are here. In every nook and cranny, there is a cute space much like this park.

    Park is a stretch. It is a wide brick-paved path (sorry pooch, no green space) at the S end of Duval St, with a few benches and art installations. To the city's credit, they did take a (usually trash-filled) dead-end and beautify it a bit. It does lead to Key West's (tiny) South Beach (where Tennessee Williams swam every morning when he lived in Key West) and is around the corner from the Southernmost Point, so a good spot to take a break and do some people-watching. That's about it.

    There was a lovely dock that extends about 30 - 50 feet into the water. The waves crash all over the dock which makes it difficult to go onto the sides of the dock. Though there is also some nice benches to sit down on and a lovely restaurant on the shore next to it that provides some good food. If your in the area it’s worth just a quick look.

    Beautiful place for a sunset

  • 5/5 Ashley T. 3 years ago on Google
    The beach was a little busy, and there was a 3-ft layer of rocks between the sand and the beach that you had to walk over to get out and swim. there was a pier that you could walk out and go check out the water, unfortunately I didn't find any shells on this beach. The bars were a little busy but the drinks were good and of course overpriced. And I found a swim bladder to a fish on the pier.

    Small beach by the “southernmost point”. The beach is nice and pretty but it smells bad.

  • 1/5 Kevin B. 3 years ago on Google
    If you want to swim this place is full of algae and the water is murky. Best non recommended swimming spot.

  • 5/5 Chad N. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a great place to catch a Key West sunrise and get serenaded by roosters.

    They killed all the trees. Now there's no shade that was desperately needed. Everything is fake concrete and looks like a dead zone void of any natural life. What a shame

  • 5/5 Nabil A. 5 months ago on Google
    The BEST spot to watch the sunrise in Key West. No crowds.

  • 5/5 Aerial G. 8 months ago on Google
    It’s definitely a cute “pocket” park. Not much to do but there are some cool statues to take pics with. 💙
