Deerfield Beach Near Boca Raton
If you’re looking for a place to relax in Boca Raton, there are plenty of beaches surrounding the area. Deerfield Beach is renowned for its gorgeous Blue Wave Beach and has been recognized as one of the best beaches in Boca Raton due to its dedication to quality water, beach amenities, and sustainability.
The beaches on the peninsula are not only beautiful, but also surround the coastline in a way that the water meets the sand on both sides. The climate and scenery make this spot very appealing to boat captains who will often dock their boats offshore to swim or surf.
Apart from swimming, sunbathing, and reading beneath the beach umbrella, there’s lots to do at Deerfield Beach Park. The park is crisscrossed with trails and lined with trees that provide welcome relief from the hot southwest Florida sun. Kids will enjoy the pirate ship playground and the chance to feed both deer and ducks on a nearly daily basis.
Bring your skateboard for some casual skating in the skate park, or participate in the world’s longest cable ski course. The world’s longest cable ski course is over a mile long and allows you to glide down the slope with your hands in your pockets.
Surfing on the north side of the pier is permitted, but on the south side of the pier, swimming and walking are only permitted. Alcoholic beverages and dogs are not allowed to be brought onto the pier. On the north side of the pier, there are beach volleyball courts and recreation facilities.
Island Water Sports is your one-stop store for all of your beach related needs. Their goal is to create a one-stop destination for all of the necessities you need for a day at the beach, or for an entire vacation. They offer a wide variety of products that cater to all ages and interests. Whether you are looking to rent any water sport equipment, find new swimwear or a place to eat, they have it all under the sun.
Deerfield Island Park is an Urban Wilderness Area consisting of 53 acres of land near the pier that has been established for the purpose of providing residents and visitors with a large variety of flora, fauna, and recreational activities. It features various trails that allow for leisurely exploration in a natural setting as well as water-based activities such as fishing from kayaks or canoes.
