THEY BITE...IT HURTS...YOU CANT SEE THEM!
To Our Park Visitors - Please be aware that Oleta River State Park has both mosquitoes and biting gnats. The gnats are also known as 'no-see-ums'. These insects are very active at dusk and dawn. We advise that you use insect repellant, limit your outside activities during these times and wear long sleeves and pants to limit your exposure to their painful bites. If you are a cabin visitor, we recommend that you keep your cabin door shut securely to prevent them from entering the building.

General Overview

State Park

Whether enjoying the 15 miles of off-road bicycling trails or paddling along lush mangrove forests, visitors find it difficult to believe that Oleta River State Park exists 30 minutes from downtown Miami.

At just over a thousand acres, this natural oasis — Florida’s largest urban park — is a haven for mountain bikers, paddlers, anglers and swimmers. Enjoy a picnic along scenic Biscayne Bay or unwind at the end of a fishing pole.

There are rustic, air-conditioned cabins, too, along with a youth campground for organized groups. The park is also a welcomed stop for long-distance paddlers on the 1,515-mile Florida Circumnavigational Saltwater Paddling Trail.

Florida's largest urban park, 30-minutes from downtown Miami

Hard to believe that this oasis is so close to major urban centers, but it's true. It boasts 15-miles of trails in more than 1,000 acres! You can bike, snorkel, paddle, run, picnic, rent cabins, primitive camp, and even get married. No bugs during the day. Some bike trails get flooded and are closed sometimes. The website gives the latest updates. It's quite easy to get to the park from I-95 or US-1. In October, some of the pavilions remained closed unfortunately. They have water spigots but no electricity. Lots of kayaks available as can be seen in the pictures and videos. Super ample parking. Youth programs. The only thing missing is water/electric tent sites!
