Maggy’s Hammock Park is a 22-acre conservation area known for its unique scrub and maritime hammock plant communities. The park features a nature trail where visitors can observe a variety of plant species and songbirds. The trail also offers an opportunity to spot the state-protected gopher tortoise, commonly seen in the scrub areas. The park is home to sand pine trees, tropical hammocks, and scrubby flatwoods, making it an island of biodiversity.
Amenities at the park include a parking lot, picnic tables, and a playground area. The trail is 1.2 miles long, offering a winding path through different habitats. The trail is unmarked, but a map is available at the first trail junction. Visitors can enjoy a walk of varying lengths depending on their route. The park is open from sunrise to sunset, and leashed dogs are welcome. There are no restrooms, and visitors are advised to avoid wearing sandals due to the terrain. Martin County manages Maggy’s Hammock Park and is a free, accessible natural area for outdoor enthusiasts.
