Maurice Gibb Memorial Park (Island View Park)

Maurice Gibb Memorial Park (Island View Park)

Maurice Gibb Memorial Park (previously known as Island View Park) is situated along Biscayne Bay in Miami Beach. The park is nicely landscaped with a paved path around the perimeter. There are benches and restrooms, as well as a small play structure. Also found here are a two-lane boat ramp - there is parking for about 12 trailers - and courtesy docks. Oddly enough, we were there on a Saturday afternoon, and the bathrooms were locked - how annoying! (Maurice Gibb Memorial Park (Island View Park) continued)
