The recent hurricanes caused significant damage and forced us to close many parks locations, including:
- Conservation, neighborhood, and specialty parks
- Nature preserves
- Sports complexes and rec centers
- Boat ramps
While most park locations have opened, due to damage and continued safety concerns, some remain closed.
Before visiting any park location, please use the "Find Park Status" button below to see if the location is on the closed/partially closed list.
Apollo Beach Skate Park is an 11,000 square feet park that opened in 2012. This unique park is shaped like a three-pointed star with an elevated center. The points allow skaters to keep a constant flow while on their boards. In addition to the real street experience at Apollo Beach Skate Park, be sure not to miss the awesome sun painting on the basin of the park course.
