Hiking the Carney Island Conservation Area Part 1 in Central Florida

This was my first day at Carney Island Park. There is a $7 fee to enter the park so even though it is near my house why go when there is so much FREE hiking in Central Florida! I look at the $7 fee for boaters who have to pay for the amazing boat access, playgound and bathroom facilities to Weir lake. Many people just drive in who don't have boats but do so at your own risk.

The park has wonderful beaches and swimming areas and is fun for the whole family anytime or year.
