A 556-foot boardwalk stretches over Lake Worth Lagoon to three restored mangrove islands in downtown West Palm Beach. Kids can spot herons, ibises, manatees, and sea turtles from the walkway while taking in skyline views of the city. Great for families looking to combine nature watching with an urban adventure. The boardwalk has benches at the end where kids can sit and search for wildlife in the water below. Metered street parking fills up quickly, especially during GreenMarket days.

South Cove Natural Area Program
Class· VariableSouth Cove Natural Area is a waterfront nature spot in West Palm Beach where kids can explore the outdoors on their own schedule. The main attraction is a 556-foot boardwalk that stretches right out to the water, perfect for a family stroll with nice views of downtown and the island. It's open sunrise to sunset every single day of the year, so you can pop over whenever it works with your family's routine. There's no structured class or program here -- it's more of a free-to-explore natural area where kids can get outside and experience the local ecosystem at their own pace. It's a great no-pressure option if you're looking for something that doesn't require advance planning or a hefty fee.
