Pair a great playground with a relaxing walk and lively farmers market in Atlantic Beach Florida at Jack Russell Park!
Get outside and active with the whole family at Jack Russell Park! There is a great playground, paved walking path, and a bunch of different sports courts and fields. The playground itself has a lot of space for running around and is divided into different sections for different age groups. There is a smaller jungle gym designated for 2-5-year-olds. It is complete with 3 slides and simple climbing equipment. There are also 2 baby swings and an all abilities swing in this section. Just beside this, connected by a paved path, are 4 traditional swings. In the main section of the play area is a much bigger jungle gym, with slides of different heights and climbing features of different difficulty levels. It is a great playground suited for a wide range of ages to enjoy. One of the more unique things that this park has is the circle of half rubber tires, which creative kids love making part of an obstacle course. There is plenty of seating all around the playground as well as the rest of the park, and most of it is very well shaded by the trees.
Bring along your kids' bikes or scooters too, there is a great paved path all around the park. You might even be able to catch a little league game at the baseball field! If there is no game, be sure to use the field for a fun kickball game. There are also basketball courts and tennis courts if any members of your family want to bring along equipment to use them! Other amenities at the park are a well-maintained bathroom, drinking fountains and a large parking lot.
There is no better time to visit Jack Russell Park than Sunday mornings for the Atlantic Beach Farmers Market! Open from 10 am-2 pm, it is a great way to get outside, be part of the community and buy some awesome treats! They have everything from veggies and yogurts to bread and pastries, as well as food trucks, art and jewelry stands and so much more. Plus, the cute manatee sculpture is a great photo op to remember your fun day exploring!
