I was in Florida for this weekend in the spring, and took advantage of this nice area with lots of nature on a boardwalk trail through a nature area. We saw plenty of birds as well as a resting alligator. We parked at the main parking area and took the boardwalk loop and then the connector trails, taking all the trails in the park.
