About This Beach
Lovers Key State Park encompasses four barrier islands with two and a half miles of pristine white sand beaches accessible by boardwalk or tram. Once only accessible by boat (hence the name, as only lovers would make the effort to reach it), the park now offers easy access to secluded beach areas. The park features five miles of hiking and biking trails through native vegetation. The estuaries and tidal lagoons provide excellent opportunities to spot manatees, dolphins, and numerous bird species. The park offers kayak rentals and guided eco-tours.
