Oleta River State Recreation Area

This beautiful recreation area set on an idyllic strand of Biscayne Bay is a great place to get away from it all. Visitors enjoy miles of walking paths and mountain bike trails, canoe and kayak rentals, a peaceful man-made stretch of beach, a designated fishing area and a well-appointed playground for the kids. Picnic tables and grills are available for those feeling so inclined. Those wanting to stay for a weekend can rent a cabin or camp on site. A jewel of natural beauty in the center of Miami's urban landscape, the 1,043-acre Oleta River State Park is the largest urban park in the state.
