Description

Tour begins promptly at 10:30 a.m. at the Black Island Trail Head located in Parking Lot #2. There is no bathroom or water fountain nearby, so please plan accordingly. We recommend arriving an hour early to the park as traffic onto the island and into the park are heavy this time of year. For questions, call 239-463-4588.

Join a park ranger for a guided hike along our Black Island Trail. Learn about the fascinating vegetation and wildlife that reside in our maritime hammock ecosystem, explore our native butterfly garden, and enjoy a little local history along the way.

Closed-toe shoes, sunscreen, bug spray, and water bottles are highly recommended.

Space is limited; reservations are required.
