The new and improved Salinas Park Bayside on 30E Cape San Blas, FL is officially open. The ribbon cutting occurred on Jan 30th. They have a new/updated elevated bayside boardwalk which is about 1,600 feet long here. Huge thank you Florida Department of Environmental Protection and The Trust for Public Land for all the wonderful upgrades. This picturesque bayside park features water access, a volleyball area, a playground, fire pit, screened in tables, grills, bathrooms and a shower. Some of the new upgrades include a pump for easy air refill while you are out biking. Also a mister to cool down on hot summer days. They have a water bottle refilling station, several drinking fountains at different heights, and much more.
A long-time local park and beach access point, Salinas Park provides a picnic grove with small wooden pavilions in a pine forest. It’s the primary access point for equestrians headed to the beach. Although the sands here aren’t as lovely as at nearby St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, the beach is busy since access is free and leased pets are welcome. This park is open 24 hours a day.
