Punta Gorda Nature Park

This was a pretty little park with trails and picnic tables and volunteer workers there beautifying the place. It was a place of comfort on a very trying day for our family as we were trying to give my sister's beloved pet beauty before he went over the rainbow Bridge. For us, it was everything.

Clean. Pretty but small. Enjoyed lunch there at a picnic table.

Great park for a short nature walk with variety from sandy walking trails to a deck over the waterway canal. Natural florida vegetation with 2 sitting areas and entrances to park by car. One with picnic tables and the other with a nice sand zen garden and park benches.

The Punta Gorda nature Park is very beautiful and well-maintained by the locals. There's a great walking path that makes you feel far away from civilization.

Very well kept. I love the walking trails.

The garden at the trail head is beautiful. Everything is maintained by volunteers called Green Thumbs. There are islands with themes like a butterfly garden, a succulent garden, etc. the trail is a big loop that can be easily walked in 45 minutes even if you stop at all of the observation points. There are lots of educational signs explaining plants and birds. There are two parking lots each with a trail head so if you are meeting someone there be specific about which parking lot you’ll meet them at. One is at the corner of Bal Harbor and Aqui Esta and the other one is closer to the Fire Station on Aqui Esta.

This park is awesome. It is truly a trail through old Florida scrub, and the plants in the two garden areas are amazing. I love walking my dog there.

Great park if you are looking for an adventurous walk. We saw plenty of little critters. Much of the park trails are unpaved so be ready for potentially dirty shoes.

Awesome little Gem in downtown Punta Gorda. Beautiful scenery, mangrove and other Native plants and wildlife that are indigenous to SWFL are visible here! Dog friendly too!

Good place to meet up and walk around

Beautiful place to go fo a nice quiet walk. A well kept park, and never really crowded either which is always a good thing especially with everything going on in the world lately...

Very well maintained. There's more to see \ do than what is seen from the road !

The park was so quiet and not much traffic.
The wild life was a added bonus. Sometimes they have small vendors with food and that's awesome.

What a wonderful quiet getaway. My wife and I had a lil lunch date together here and I am so happy the park is even better than the last time I was here, 5 🌟 for quality

Great beautiful DOG friendly park. Love the butterfly bushes and plaque showing native butterflies..

Nice looping trail.

Nice trail. Dog friendly. There are stations with poop bags at both ends of the trail for your convenience!

A lovely little walk through the scrub of Florida

Nice picnic area, clean with some shade. 1/2 Miles walking trail.

Green thumbs. A group of us work there every week. Weeding. Pruning. Watering. Always looking for more smiling faces. Come join us.
