Red Reef Park is the most popular of Boca Raton's oceanfront parks, a strip of beach on A1A named after the natural limestone reef that runs just off the sand. At high tide the reef sits in waist- to chest-deep water within a few metres of the shore, which makes it one of the easiest places in South Florida to snorkel straight from the beach: parrotfish, sergeant majors and the occasional sea turtle are common on calm, clear days. Next door, the Gumbo Limbo Nature Center runs a sea turtle rehabilitation facility and a boardwalk through coastal hammock, and the park itself has picnic areas and a small executive golf course on the west side of the road. Boca Inlet, a short walk south, has strong tidal currents and is the city's best-known surf spot when an east or north-east swell arrives in winter. Most days the water is calm enough for swimming and paddling inside the guarded area, and lifeguards are on duty every day of the year.
