South Beach Park or South Park???
Laura sent me advice that South Beach Park or South Park...she was not sure of the exact name was a good park to go to. However, I am not sure where it is. She said that is was between Beach and JTB. Does anybody know directions on how to get there coming off of Southside onto Beach Blvd?
I would really like to check this park out but I can not find it listed under Jacksonville parks to find directions. Anyhelp would be appreciated.
Thank you Laura for the recomendation. If I can just figure out exactly where it is I will check it out. Thanks again.

There is a park called "Sunshine Park" it is off of South Beach Parkway. Its a great park. It is the first exit off of JTB after you cross the intercoastal

This is called Sunshine Park..Its located on Osceola Avenue and South Beach Parkway...you can take Beach to 3rd street,turn right, then a little ways down you turn right onto Osceola (you will see a Starbucks there) Or you can take JTB to the Marsh landing exit...stay straight...take a left onto South Beach Prkwy...stay straight and you will see the park on your left...You need to pass the park to the next left and you will find the enterance there....

This might be the park in JAX Beach. The park has a huge pirate ship in it. I am not sure if that is the one she is talking about. I have not been there but have heard it is great.

I THINK YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT SUNSHINE PARK AT JAX BEACH. TAKE BEACH BLVD EAST, MAKE A RIGHT ON NINTH STREET ALL THE WAY DOWN UNTIL YOU PASS THE FIRE STATION ON THE RIGHT. YOU'LL SEE SUNSHINE PARK STRAIGHT AHEAD.

Get onto JTB (J Turner Butler) from Southside Blvd. and head east towards the beach. You will go almost to the very end and get off at South Beach Parkway/ Marsh Landing exit. Once you are on the off ramp you will come to a stop light. Take a left at the light and go under the overpass. Keep going and you will see the park on your left about 1/5 mile down before you get to the intersection of Osceola and South Beach Pkwy.

Sorry about that I have a two year old that just pressed enter. The park I think you are referring to is located at JTB and Marsh Landing Parkway. Take a left at MLP and its about a mile down on the left. Nice Park.

Hey M.,
I'm sorry for the vague location - take JTB to Marsh Landing Parkway exit, at first light take a left (South Beach Pkwy), go about a mile or 2 to a stop sign at Osceola and take a left.
Or, from Beach, take a right on 9th Ave (right before the bowling alley). You will come to the same stop sign intersection, but take a right onto Osceola.
There is a fire station at that stop sign intersection.
Hope this helps. Maybe I'll see you there some day - I have a 3 year old boy who LOVES it.
Have fun!!!!!
