I have seen many beautiful parks in this country. Yet, Philippe Park continues to be one of my all-time favorites.
Here is why! ( Couple of pro-tips at the end)
1. It is Stunningly beautiful, everywhere!
2. It is a perfect place for every member of the family. Kiddos, adults, more mature adults, furry friends, everyone with 2 legs or 4 legs, all can find something to love here.
3. There are so many fun things to do here: hiking, biking, fishing, picnic, hammocking, beach, or take the BEST selfies under the magnificent tree canopy
4. Abundant Parking, FREE.
Here are what you will see on a beautiful Friday morning in May
Hiking Trail along the Water Front
The Biking/Walking Trail
Do you know that there is a beach in the park? Few locals do, now you do too!
Share a peaceful environment when the true locals show up!
Boating Anyone?
Pro-Tip 1:
Before you get to the park, pay a visit to our friends at First Choice Food & Deli (335 Philippe Pkwy, Safety Harbor, FL 34695). Eddie and his wife make the absolutely BEST Cuban sandwiches in the area. Grab a bottle of wine while you are there and you’ll have the best picnic in 10 minutes. Take to the park, find a table near the water and have a beautiful experience you’ll never forget!
Pro-Tip 2:
You will be minutes away (by walking) to this fabulous park when you stay in any of our beautiful vacation homes in Safety Harbor .
