Discover this park

Once a sand-and-gravel mine, Quiet Waters became a lakeside park of about 430 acres after opening as Quiet Waters Beach in 1958. It is known for its cable-tow waterski course, splash park and campsites, but there is also a quieter nature trail winding through meadows and hammocks that doubles as a bird and butterfly sanctuary. Thrill-seekers on skis and people looking for shade and a picnic table both get what they came for.

About this park

Lakes, shady picnic groves and long looping trails. The name says it all: this one is built for a reset.

Before you go

Park names, locations, amenities and other public information are provided for informational and navigational purposes. Park information may change. Verify current hours, closures, fees and rules with the applicable park authority before visiting.

Check current weather and park conditions before starting. South Florida weather changes quickly — no stamp, XP or badge is worth continuing in unsafe conditions.

You decide what is safe for you and your group. Follow posted park rules, closures and staff instructions. Children stay with a responsible adult. Never enter closed or restricted areas to finish a quest.
