Popular Things to Do in and Nearby Lake Park

Snorkel, dive, and thrive! The Blue Heron Bridge is one of The Palm Beaches’ best snorkel and dive sites and just minutes away from Lake Park! Internationally known as a top dive site and named “Best Shore Diving in The Americas,” you can see beautiful tropical fishes, octopuses, seahorses, manatees, and even statues and small boat wrecks in these clear blue waters. The best part about diving or snorkeling here is its accessibility—you can wade out from the shore at Phil Foster Park in Riviera Beach and begin exploring in a matter of minutes. Depths range from just four feet to 20, making it ideal for divers of all levels.

Located just a stone’s throw from Lake Park, Peanut Island is one of the area’s most iconic parks. This 80-acre oasis is a go-to for both locals and visitors, especially on weekends. Bring your boat or kayak out to the island—or hop aboard the Peanut Island Shuttle Boat if you don’t have your own.
