C.B. Smith Park

This diverse 299-acre park has an extensive range of facilities. Here are some of the wonderful recreation opportunities waiting for you at C.B. Smith Park. 

Picnics and Parties
There are lots of picnic areas and shelters with grills and picnic tables for your gatherings. Park patrons can ride their own bikes on paths throughout the park or rent boats to tour the more than 80 acres of lakes. There are canoes, paddle boats, and jon boats available. You must be at least 18 years old to sign a rental contract, and no one under the age of 12 may use a boat without an adult also in the boat.

Paradise Cove Water Park -- closed until March 2009
The aquatics complex was named Paradise Cove when the swimming lake was removed and the current structures opened a few years ago. The features include two large water playgrounds, a meandering rushing water tube ride, and two 450-foot water slides. One of the water playgrounds is designed for toddlers and the other is designed for older "kids." This aquatics facility is phenomenal and must be seen to be appreciated! For more information, contact the Paradise Cove Water Park at 954-437-2650.

Golf and Batting Cages
Near the entrance of the park, you will see the All Golf Facility and Batting Cages. This area has a driving range, miniature golf course, batting cages, and a pro shop.

You are in luck if you are looking for variable speed batting cages for softball and baseball. There is also a covered driving range with lights and a short game area to bring you up to par. The Pro-Shop is stocked with all major brand names and PGA instructions are also available.

Other Amenities
Many patrons come here because it is a great place to fish (except in the marina area). You can fish from the shore, from the pier, or even fish from a rented boat. C.B. Smith also has a Safety Town — a miniature two-block village designed to teach children pedestrian and bike safety — and a Racquet Center with tennis and racquetball courts.And if all this still isn't enough recreation for you, C.B. Smith also has one basketball court, a biking/jogging path, several playgrounds and a few areas for volleyball and horseshoes. There are no fees charged to use any of these areas (except park admission) and you can either bring your own equipment or rent it at the park office.

C.B. has an area that has minature roadways and designated as Safety Town, a program of Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital. Here children learn such bicycle safety basics as which side of the road to ride on, how to observe a stop sign, and how to proceed at railroad crossings. To schedule a Safety Town visit for a children’s group, call 954-276-5991.
