Great park! We arrived on a very cold day but still had lots of visitors. People on the beach in jackets, others in swimsuits. Wonderful job getting everything looking nice after the hurricane, kudos to those that did the work. We would definitely go back.
Feb 12, 2026 · Google ReviewBest place to see the sunset *BEST PLACE TO CATCH THE SUNSET 365 DAYS A YEAR! Want to swim with or see a pod of dolphins 🐬 during their dinner feeding frenzy??!!!!? Pine Island @ Alfred A McKethan in North Hernando County is better than Clearwater Beach, Honey Moon Island, Fort DeSoto State park and Beach. Plenty of picnic tables and covered pavilions. Bathrooms, I give a B-. There are Clearwater 2 foot and body showers . Brand new playground for the kids. I Would rank this as #1 beach in Tampa Bay viewing area!
Dec 16, 2025 · Google ReviewLove the new park they built at Alfred Pine Island Park. Although park is surrounded by a parking lot and water. The water is also very shallow, and every time we go we see dolphins-without fail- every time. The downside is the park isn’t gated in and my child eloped through the parking lot right into the water, so definitely could use a fence around the park.
Dec 10, 2025 · Google ReviewFINALLY reopened after hurricane damage from 2024. I'm really missing the Tiki snack bar they had. There's new bathrooms and the deck that was replaced. The children's playground is very nice! Thank goodness they still have picnic tables. This is the closest patch of beach near me, so I'm super happy they're finally opened!
Jan 16, 2026 · Google ReviewThese CT gals had the best day relaxing at the park even though it was a bit chilly today. The sand is so soft! Shout out to Sherry for checking in on us & sharing stories. The park & rec staff do a wonderful job keeping it immaculate. Bathrooms clean, great playground & cornhole boards (bring your own bags). Love the covered picnic areas.
