Description
Visitors to Biscayne National Park can walk along the shores of Biscayne Bay on the only walking trail at the Convoy Point Area. The grounds are open from 7a-5:30pm for a liesurely walk along the boardwalk.
For those who are interested, there is a narration that you can use to accompany your walk which can be found here. We've designed this narration to be an independent exploration which has informational ‘stations’ and short narrations to accompany your exploration. There are no markers to indicate when you've reached a station but there are descriptions and images on the webpage. Your return trip is left open for independent adventuring and all-around enjoyment of this beautiful walking trail here at Biscayne National Park. The text written here is meant to accompany you to possibly be read out loud as a family, silently to yourself or skipped all together. Take your time or walk it very quickly. Do one station or do all of them. Go back a station if you'd like. Stop to watch the birds. Stop to watch the fish. Stop to read some of the waysides. Stop at one of the many benches to think about the direction your life is taking you. (Woah. That got deep very fast!) In all seriousness, enjoy this walk at your own pace.
