we encourage everyone TO VISIT CAYO COSTA STATE PARK!
OPEN 24/7 ! CAYO COSTA IS FLORIDA'S GEM AMONG PARKS
The park's northern facilities are designed for large groups and private boaters. The park should increase capacity for all groups on this end as private boat slips are sorely lacking.
Park amenities include kayak/paddleboard rentals, concessions, tram rides across the beautiful mile-wide maritime hammock to the beach, trails and interpretive signs, pavilions, campground and rangers on duty to answer questions.
Commercial concession ferrys arrive daily from many points and reservations can be made online or by phone.
