Hollywood North Beach Park

I recently visited this beach and was pleasantly surprised by how peaceful and clean it was! One of the best features is the grilling area, which made our day extra special. It’s not always easy to find a beach where you can cook out, but this spot had designated grills and picnic tables, perfect for a family BBQ or small gathering with friends. The beach itself was beautiful, soft sand, clear water, and not overly crowded. Parking was manageable, and there were restrooms nearby which made things convenient, especially with kids. If you’re looking for a place to relax, grill some delicious food, and enjoy a fun beach day, this is definitely worth checking out. Tip: Arrive early if you want to grab a grill spot, especially on weekends. Bring your own charcoal, and utensils.

Parking is $10 for the day. The beach is clean, peaceful, and not overly crowded — perfect for a relaxing visit. One of the best features of Hollywood Beach is the nearby boardwalk, offering plenty of dining options and gift shops just steps away from the sand.

This is a beautiful beach! A lot of wild life, it was clean and they have lifeguards there. Also the place has showers and bathrooms what is nice

The beach itself was lovely, clean and parking was easy. I went there to explore their snorkel trail as a simple shore dive. The facilities were great, parking easy and even a place to wash gear. The artificial reef was just ok.

Great beach very clean. I really love that there is a place to wash the sand off and use the bathroom when I am done on the beach. There was plenty of parking here on a Thursday morning at 7am. I paid using an app I downloaded last night. It was filling up when we left two hours later. There was security and the beach is maintained in the early morning. I do wish the tractor had come through a little sooner but only because I didn’t like the sound of it, which I know is kind of petty on my part. We saw dolphins right after sunrise in the distance and there were schools of small fish that occasionally came past us. Will definitely revisit this beach.

Hollywood North Beach Park is a peaceful place to enjoy the ocean without the large crowds you often find at other beaches. The views of the water are beautiful, and the long boardwalk is perfect for a relaxing stroll or bike ride. It’s a great spot if you're looking for a quiet and laid-back beach experience. There’s plenty of space to spread out, and the natural surroundings add to the calm vibe. However, during my visit, it was extremely hot and there wasn’t much shade, so be sure to bring sun protection. I also noticed that some areas could be cleaner, especially around the restrooms and picnic spots. Overall, it’s a nice place to unwind and enjoy the beach — with a bit of improvement in maintenance, it could be even better.

Beach was covered in trash and sargassum. No shade. Only one outdoor shower not near the parking lot or restrooms. Restrooms are off parking lot, not the beach. Came with 4, 6 and 8yo and would not consider this family friendly at all. Disappointing.

Hidden gem, I loved this place , quiet and clear clean water .
