Sugar Sand Park isn't your average outdoor space. Yes, there's a playground. And true, it's home to many winding nature trails—the Sand Pine path snakes through endangered Florida scrub and the Slash Pine through pine flatwoods. But this 132-acre park in Boca Raton also plays host to some features you wouldn't expect.
The Children's Science Explorium, for example, resides within the park. Here kids can dive into the sciences via hands-on exhibits. They can learn even more while they play at the Science Playground back outside, which also features interactive opportunities for learning about science—albeit in a less structured environment. Let kids run around the wooden boardwalks and splash around in a watery play area. Most visitors also love to visit the park's carousel, which dates back to the 19th century, and seeing a show at the Willow Theatre.
