This park is so much fun to visit! We arrived by private boat and enjoyed walking all around the island and taking in the beautiful scenery. We saw a lot of birds including vultures. The restrooms were clean and had plenty of toilet paper. We didn't swim, but noticed plenty of people bathing in the sun and enjoying the sandy beaches. It was mid February and not crowded at all. I hope to go again and would like to see the historical restorations.

Very nice atmosphere and friendly people. The ferry ride to the island is about 5 minutes. Last ride back is 5pm. So get in line at pier a little earlier than that. There are no snacks or refreshments that you can purchase on the island and not always a lifeguard w available. Bring beach shoes if you're going to be extra safe. Saw a few broken shards or wine glass , also the rocks are very sharp, they will cut you. Beautiful scenery. Iguanas everywhere, which is pretty cool to see. If you like fishing, drop a line under the pier. Will definitely come back. Cost about 25 dollars per person for round trip ferry. Paid parking about 10 bucks.

The place is absolutely beautiful, and we truly enjoyed the stunning scenery. It's a dog-friendly island, which we appreciated, but dogs must be kept on a leash at all times. Unfortunately, we weren’t aware of this rule. The way the staff approached us was unnecessarily rude and confrontational. If they had told us in a respectful and friendly manner, it would have made a big difference in our overall experience.

I recommend if your an outdoor person. We did camping. They have restrooms with showers clean condition. Could use a little update though. No electricity on the camping area you have to go to restrooms for electricity. Beaches are very nice. Warm water, pets are allow. Didn't see much shade close to water, but they do have shade on the picnic areas. NeG: camping they only allow 1 tent per lot, we had an extra one to store our food items and they told us to take down :(((

The perfect getaway. I camped for 4 days in a tent and it was very relaxing. If you plan to snorkel, be mindful of the tides. Hi Tide gives the best chances at seeing different types of fish.
