BIP features an entrance gazebo that leads into a winding trail that takes park guests past water features and examples of native hammock and educational signage. Visitors experience sample Northeast Florida ecosystems highlighting the native flora and fauna . The hedged sea turtle maze provides shade trees and four beautifully crafted benches in the center for visitors to relax and enjoy their surroundings. BIP features a story telling area with benches and a small amphitheater enhanced with beautiful mosaic tiles and shade trees. A boardwalk encircles the pond that features Bird Island in the center, a second gazebo on the waterfront and a play area for the little ones. The handicapped accessible sidewalk winds around the entire park. Three times around the park equals one mile making Bird Island Park a great place for everyone to enjoy nature while getting their daily exercise!

This was a lovely little park. Very peaceful and a lot of birds to see. Not to long of a walk so should be good for most people! Highly recommend!

A peaceful beautiful diamond tucked into an unexpected area in Ponte Vedra. Peaceful, serene location filled with a wide array of active wildlife, otters, egrets, blue Herons, turtles, jumping fish, and many more. A place created from generosity of others♥️

Amazing spot for afternoon walks and frequent bird spotting! The library has a small parking lot in the back thst gives you immediate access to a wonderful wooden walkway surrounding a small pond. In the center is foliage that houses a number of birds, hence the name. I encourage you to focus on the walkway before heading to the rest of the trail which involves a small amphitheater and maze!
