Hernando Beach and Community Park, Recreational beach and park in Citrus County, United States.
Hernando Beach and Community Park is a recreational area along the Florida coast offering waterfront activities and outdoor facilities. The site features a fishing pier, basketball courts, shaded picnic pavilions, and paved parking near the shoreline.
The beach was created between 1959 and 1965 through coastal dredging and mining operations as part of a development project. This industrial activity shaped the shoreline into the recreational area that exists today.
The beach serves as a gathering place where residents enjoy leisure time and connect with their community. You will see families picnicking, people fishing from the pier, and boaters preparing to head out on the water.
The park is accessible daily and features paved parking near the entrance for easy access. Plan your visit during warm months when beach and water conditions are most favorable for outdoor activities.
The northern section has deep saltwater canals that connect directly to the Gulf of Mexico for boating enthusiasts. This direct waterway access is what sets this location apart from nearby beach areas.
