Andy Romano Beachfront Park

Pretty park, well organized,
and you’re at the beach
Soooooooooooooo
if you’re not having a good time
it’s your fault…
Fun fountain for little ones to play in.
Really nice place to go at night and romantic. Bring a towel with you in the dark and have crazy «sex on the beach» for real – hahahaha – just kidding – too many people with flashlights on their cellphones. Don’t turn into a youtube video…

Fantastic beach park! I can’t believe it took someone this long to build a splash pad at a beach park– genius! This park is new and pretty clean. There are 4 large covered pavilions you can rent but a friend was saying the rental fee is over $ 300 for the day. There are also several cement picnic tables that are partially covered and are first come first served (you can’t reserve these through the city). In addition, there are uncovered cement picnic tables scattered about. We got there early one rainy Saturday to snag some of the «first come, first serve» tables for a birthday party.
There is a concessions stand in the middle of the park with a playground on one side and the splash pad on the other. There are showers at the top of every exit from the beach and near the splash pad. The playground is quite small and isn’t too little kid friendly but at least its covered. The splash pad is pretty basic but its nice to have another way to get wet that doesn’t involve salt water. TONS of kids were enjoying the splash pad on the day we were there. It was almost too crowded. The concession stand sells your normal beach food faire– hot dogs, chips, ice cream. There are lots of family restrooms around the main building and a single men’s room and single woman’s room. Unfortunately there are no indoor showers. It would’ve been nice if the ladies/men’s rooms had more than one stall. It also would’ve been great if they would’ve added an indoor ladies (and men’s) changing/​shower area. The park is non-​smoking but people were smoking regardless.
There is a lot of free parking at the park and the park itself is just a dozen or so stairs from the sand. The portion of the beach directly below the park is the drive free zone so safer for little ones. The beach itself was ok– there was a good amount of trash in the sand and nasty smokers dropping their butts on the beach. Lifeguards were on duty while we were there. The county placed little placards with information about the local plant and wildlife that were interesting.
There was a park employee cleaning and trying to keep the place neat. Some of the people using the park were making his job harder. One group of idiots gave their kids water balloons. The kids proceeded to throw the balloons all over the place and left the latex pieces behind. Great way to kill beach wildlife! Such a pretty beach park being ruined by people, what a shame! Another group left their trash about and used some kind spray chalk on the nice new pavers. I found myself picking up balloon bits all day. Still, probably one of the best beach parks I’ve been to. I think this park will set the standard for parks to come and with a few minor improvements will be a 5 star park.

Very glad the city bought this land and built this. Great lace to walk after eating at the many restraints in the area. The little kids have a splash park and a playground. The information boards are very nice and there is sunrise service on Sunday’s if you are up early.
The food selection is very nice and diverse for a beach concession stand.

This may be the perfect beachfront park. Free parking, clean, lifeguard and fountain.
My mother in law loves to come to this park to watch the toddlers play in the bubbling fountain. She claims that there is never any trash lying about and the families are very respectful about keeping it that way. There are picnic tables and grills to help make the perfect beach day.

Plenty of free parking, clean restrooms, ample covered picnic tables, a nice concession offering beverages and hot sandwiches, showers, and right on the beach. Nice job Volusia county!

Awesome place on the beach! Plenty of free parking. They have a shaded play structure area that offers the kids something to do that’s not in the hot midday sun or tropical rain. There are also clean bathrooms with changing areas. There are picnic tables with shade and adjoining grills for anyone to use. I really like the snack stand with cold cokes and hot dogs. I spent all afternoon here with the kids after we checked out of our nearby hotel. They had so much fun! We will definitely go again.
