3860 N Ocean Blvd, Riviera Beach, FL 33404

A West Palm Beach county park on the south end of Singer Island with a rock formation offshore that creates one of South Florida's most accessible snorkeling spots — best at high tide. Free parking is the rarity here; the guarded beach, pavilion, and shade trees make it a local family favorite.
