Okeeheelee Park, County park in West Palm Beach, US

Okeeheelee Park is a county park of more than 1,700 acres west of Greenacres in Palm Beach County, Florida. Its construction was split into six phases, and the site was completed in June 1996 after 23 years of reclamation. The grounds hold two lakes used for boating, fishing and water skiing, a 27-hole golf course, baseball fields, tennis courts and a BMX track, with a fitness trail and bike trail running between the lakes.

Strip mining shaped the land in the 1950s and 1960s. In 1973 the county bought the site, and on June 15, 1974, Okeeheelee Park was dedicated; its name comes from the Seminole for "pretty waters". The first phase, covering 954 acres with 12 athletic fields and a water-ski course, opened in March 1982, and the park was completed in June 1996.

The nature center here focuses on teaching visitors about Florida's wildlife and native plants through hands-on learning spaces. You can see animals and habitats that actually live in this region.

The park lies south of Forest Hill Boulevard, east of Florida's Turnpike and west of Jog Road. Nature trails are open daily from sunrise to sunset, while the Okeeheelee Nature Center opens Wednesday to Friday 1:00–4:30 PM and Saturday 10:00 AM–4:30 PM, closed Monday and Tuesday. Pooch Pines dog park closes noon to 3 PM on Wednesdays for maintenance.

Okeeheelee Park has two lakes, not five, and they allow boating, fishing, water skiing and radio-controlled boating. The park covers over 1,700 acres, and its name comes from the Seminole word for "pretty waters".
