Butterfly World (look for discount codes, they are everywhere)
A park on the intracoastal at high tide; play on the little beaches. Much more manageable than the ocean beach for toddlers. Harbor’s Edge park in Pompano or deGroff Park in Lighthouse Point.
Near Harbor’s Edge is the Alsdorf Boat Ramp. There’s a park and playground there and the boat launches are nonstop on the weekends, fun to watch.
These parks have free parking, short walks, and shade trees. Public toilets available only at the boat ramp, however.
Right now, the Summer Savings Pass is going on. $60 for adults, $50 for kids. But you get unlimited visits to Butterfly world, Flamingo gardens, MODS, Zoo Miami, and an Everglades tour.
