Things To Do

Doral Glades Park opened in the summer of 2019, making it one of the area’s newest outdoor recreation venues. Set on 25 sprawling acres in the community of Doral in northwestern Miami-Dade County, Doral Glades Park is teeming with wildlife. The park boasts a nature preserve, a large lake and sports facilities – including a sand volleyball court, two tennis courts and a basketball court, making it ideal for families looking to enjoy outdoor activities in a safe environment.

Wildlife

Designed with a mission to showcase the lush ecosystem surrounding Doral there are plenty of ways to experience this unique natural habitat firsthand. Stroll with your family along the lake’s scenic lighted boardwalk and pier with direct access to the wetlands. Keep your eyes peeled for herons, egrets and other wading birds along the mangrove shoreline. You can also launch kayaks to set out and explore the shallow waters or cast a line at the fishing pier and see what you reel in. For families traveling with younger children, the park also boasts a nature-themed playground with a slide beneath a shaded canopy.

Family Fun

While the indoor nature center and its interactive exhibits are currently closed in accordance with local health protocols, there’s still plenty to experience safely outdoors with the park’s lake and sports facilities. Enjoy a snack under the outdoor pavilions (available for rentals), play a game of tennis or sand volleyball, or stroll the scenic boardwalk. Situated in a family-friendly Miami neighborhood, Doral Glades Park is a great outdoor destination for anyone traveling with kids who have extra energy to burn – and they can do it while communing with nature in a beautiful setting.
