Oleta River State Park
We are entering Oleta River State Park. This wildlife oasis makes it hard to believe we are only 30 miles away from Miami. Oleta River State Park is over 1,000 acres and is Florida’s largest Urban Park. Those on watercraft can enjoy paddling through mangrove trails or access to the Oleta River. The hidden alcoves make this a popular destination for fishers as well.

It’s not uncommon to see various wildlife that inhabit the Oleta River. You’ll often see hermit crabs in the Mangroves or even manatees or dolphins that frequent the river. Just make sure you clean up after your visit, to make sure the waterways are clean for these animals that call it home.

For those who would rather stay on land, though Florida is flat and coastal, Oleta River offers over 10 miles of intermediate and advanced mountain bike trails. I’d suggest visiting the onsite butterfly garden as well, which offers up-close views of native butterflies such as the Zebra Longwing and the Atala butterfly all year-round.
If you want to stay longer, Oleta River offers 14 rustic, open air cabins available to rent, perfect for a weekend staycation.
