Tatiana RQuiet launch, great for beginners. I would recommend wearing watershoes for launching and if you cannot carry your kayak or paddleboard on your own bring something to help. The launch is a bit of a walk from the parking lot. Nice bathroom and changing areas as well as nicely paved walking trails although they are short. Dolphins greeted us at the launch when we arrived, we also saw a ton of fish and birds while paddling the mosquito lagoon paddle trail (marked with signs).

Christopher JanssenThere isn’t a lot of signage to find this little gem. There isn’t a playground, but it is a wonderful place to learn and enjoy the nature side of new Smyrna Beach. there are a couple of picnic tables and restrooms. Bring a leash to walk her dog.

Chad BrownBeautiful park, decent lagoon access after a short walk, theres a dock and small shallow rocky beach. I saw birds, dolphins, fish, and I suppose an iguana ( invasive, but I can't confirm it whatever it was took us both by surprise ). Found a trash can in the preserve and carried it back.

DeAnna BrooksOne of my favorite places to meditate.... A nice relaxing place to walk, immerse yourself in nature, and enjoy the Back Lagoon. If you are very blessed during your visit, you may just get to see a few dolphin or Manatee! But you are sure to see some fish jumping and some beautiful birds gliding effortlessly through the beautiful sky! The sunsets are amazing...as is the relaxing atmosphere. If you are looking to experience a relaxing environment, Indian River Lagoon can't be beat!

Jason BoothNice little park. Has a circular side walk through the woods and a long trail to the river where there is a large dock with a pinic bench at the end. Be a great place to fish. The pearl never seems busy. There can be hours with no one else thare. It is small though.
