At Werner-Boyce you can enjoy all the natural wildlife, birdwatchers especially will enjoy the viewing stands on the eagle and spring trails. Swimming is not allowed at Werner-Boyce due to the protection of the natural mangroves lining the shore. However, swimming is allowed outside the park on Durney Key which can be reached by kayak from Werner-Boyce. Due to Florida State Parks not being funded by taxes there is a small fee to enter the park. The fee to enter the park is 2$ per pedestrian or bicyclist or 4$ per vehicle or family.
While you can enjoy the beautiful gulf of Mexico at Werner-Boyce you can also enjoy just as beautiful water with a Pettit Pool. Pettit Pools’ premium fiberglass pools are made with the highest quality fiberglass ensuring crystal clear blue water. Fiberglass pools are built to last; the same resin that was used in manufacturing the 50 year old boats in the marina is the same type of resin used in our fiberglass pools.
