River Breeze Park, Florida, United States

Manatees at last - Bad fisherman!

Whilst driving up the Route 1 highway we made a random stop here for a coffee break. What a lucky find, the park has a huge free car park, and a great boardwalk going a fair way out over the Indian River North for some great views and fishing. Whilst on the boardwalk a friendly local sheriff pointed out all the manatees that were a little further up river near the boat launch ramp. Our first sighting in 2 weeks of looking! It was fantastic seeing the Manatees up so close and for a good amount of time hanging around the launch area for ages…only to be spoiled by a returning fisherman seemingly taking delight in deliberately driving his boat straight over the backs of them and scaring them off!

    Very nice boat ramp and facilities
    Very nice boat ramp and facilities. Just make sure you have everything secured and tucked away before you pull out of the park (like fishing poles sticking up high). Don't follow some GPS to get there, just watch the signs for the park or you will be told to turn in too soon and then have trouble turning around.

    Clean, Nice Boat Ramp and Park
    Have launched boats here for a decade, really clean and safe ramp. Get there before sunrise or well into afternoon if you want an uncrowded launch. There is also a nice playground we frequent that our kids enjoy. We have a house down the road and is a great place to take a walk and let the kids run it out.
