The campground store, run by Adventure Kayak Florida, rents kayaks and mountain bikes and sells snacks and supplies. A kids' splash park operates from the first weekend in May to the first weekend in October (10 a.m.–7 p.m., no lifeguards), so it is closed for the winter. Picnic areas and group sites can be reserved, and the park has tent sites, RV sites and cabins. Swimming is not allowed in the lake; skateboards and scooters are not permitted in the park. ## Similar picks in Jacksonville - [Big Talbot Island State Park and Boneyard Beach](https://grassyknees.com/jacksonville/activities/big-talbot-island-state-park-and-boneyard-beach--listing-25eef59a8b92a1792ceda07c) — Daily 8 a.m. to sunset (boat ramp open 24 hours) · Big Talbot Island State Park · All ages · From $3 · checked Oct 24.
