Cayo Costa Beach

Amenities

Discover endless ways to explore Cayo Costa State Park’s pristine beauty. Spend the day paddling along the island’s quiet shoreline by kayak or paddleboard, or cruise through the mangrove trails in search of dolphins and manatees. Rent a bike and venture down sandy paths shaded by coastal pines, or grab a surfboard and catch gentle Gulf waves. For a slower pace, cast a line from the shore and reel in a fresh catch, or simply relax on the beach with chairs and umbrellas set against miles of unspoiled white sand. Whether you’re chasing adventure or tranquility, Cayo Costa offers the perfect island escape.

Adventure and Wildlife

Paddle through mangrove tunnels to spot dolphins, manatees, and wading birds, or wander the beaches where sea turtle nesting season begins in May and continues through October. During this special time, visitors are encouraged to respect the park’s wildlife by keeping a safe distance from nests, avoiding bright lights on the beach at night, and leaving no trace behind. Whether you’re biking the trails or paddling the shoreline, every adventure provides reveals the wild beauty and delicate balance of this island paradise.
