  • Coral Reef Park

    – In 2008 Coral Reef Park received the Kids Crown award by South Florida Parenting magazine as the “Best Park for Toddlers” and I believe it. But the park is so much more than just a place for toddlers. With new additions like beach volleyball court, tennis courts, meditation gazebo and garden and concession stands being build right now it is truly a great place for the whole family.
