Sunlight shimmers off the St. Lucie River at River Park Marina, a 12-acre park off of East Prima Vista Boulevard that includes a boat ramp, a nature trail through a floodplain swamp and a dock on the river. It also has an awesome playground designed to look like a pirate ship. For the more adventurous, kayak rentals and river cruises aboard the River Lilly are also available at specific times.

With all the craziness going on in the world today, it’s nice to know that the city has provided places where residents can take a timeout to enjoy Mother Nature…
