Absolutely beautiful. A must do stop

Easily accessible by car with just a short walk across a wheelchair friendly boardwalk to the viewing pier. Shade structures and benches are available, as are some informational signs featuring some of the birds you may encounter. Unless you're a hardcore birdwatcher, 15-20 minutes is plenty of time to see this feature of the park.

Nice to be out in nature, biked from entrance to entrance and got some good miles in. Lot's of wildlife to view.

This turned into a fun 4 hours for us. The bird walk was well worth the few minutes to get there.

Just the beauty of the area is worth the visit and of course the birdwalk is one of many things to do in Myakka State Park.

Park entrance cost was only $6 for the car off us. We brought a lunch but the cafe offered a great variety and we ended up getting ice cream later. Be sure to bring bug spray.

Worth the price per car to get in (6 bucks? Maybe 4)

Where are the birds? Well bring your best binoculars or spotting scope. Most of the bird viewing is of the water birds on the lake and across the other side. My visit was in the afternoon and I was told by the local birders present that the very best viewing is in the early morning and late afternoon.

We loved it. Rainy season caused the hike to be a bit swampy but we were able to get to the short canopy tower and still be dry. The top of the tower was neat. We took the airboat tour. It was only $15/adult and worth it. A full hour and the guide kept us informed and entertained.
