Stretching from 5th street to 14th street on Ocean Drive, the park and beach is full of many types of people and activities. People playing volleyball, rollerbladers, artists, skateboarders, sun-bathers, and many other people make this beach one of the best people watching and active beaches in the city. Best of all, Ocean Drive is right next door, ensuring that sun-bathers and partiers are never too far from the action.

Once on the beach, one is greeted by a wide and ample beachfront. The characteristic (and each different) lifeguard stands can be seen dotting the entire beach to the north and south.
