Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

It was a cold, windy, miserable day, cold front came through, but I wanted to look for migrant birds on my day off. I can imagine this venue is awesome on good days, in spite of the conditions, I still saw 52 bird species! There were too many trails to hike them all.
The gift shop provided a moment of warmth and the grill provided a delicious warm meal.
Definitely worth the drive and effort. It costs 5 dollars to visit all day. Best time to see the birds was low tide.

The beach was great, not too crowded on a Saturday afternoon and the water was near perfect. Some areas have a narrow beach so not a lot of space to spread out. Lots of great shell hunting. There wasn't a foot wash at the boardwalk by the fort.
The restroom by the fort was pretty bad, you're better to walk over to the gift shop.
The fort is kinda cool but not much to see and only a few educational signs. We spent only about 10 minutes there and it was very hot.

A vista do pier é linda linda linda! Vimos vários golfinhos!!!!
A praia é vazia, areia branquinha, água clarinha e fria.
Tem muitas pessoas pescando, isso é meio chato porque atrapalha a vista e eles quase acertam o anzol em você.
Tem uma lojinha e um lugar pra comer (que não parece bom).
Tem bicicletas, kayak, sombrinha, cadeira e etc pra alugar.
Estacionamento é +- $5.

Visited the park after several years. It has changed a lot. Still a beautiful beach but not what it once was. Had to wade thru knee deep water to get to the beach at the North end. Paying for parking was a pain in the butt. Have to put your tag number in a machine that was difficult to read. This seems to be the norm any more but i would just rather have someone hand me a ticket and I give them $5. There is an app you can download that might make it easier had I known ahead of time. Bike trail was nice but dont bother using the bike pump along the trail. The one I used didnt work and ended up taking all the air out of my tire and i had to walk back. I enjoyed it but I dont know that we will ever go back. There are better beaches that are less hassle.

Dog park and dog beach HEAVEN!!! SUPER clean, great park, small and large dog area also has watering to drink and wash puppers off after they go to the beach.
Now, the beach, it is off leash and just a fabulous place for all pups. If you don't like it, you are the type of person who needs more control over the environment and this may not be the place for you.
Beauty+ fun for all.

We spent a week in the area and our host recommended that we try the North beach at Ft De Soto. So glad we did! This is the nicest beach we’ve been to; sand is pure white and didn’t get hot. Water is crystal clear. Lifeguards every day we were there. Snack bar and bathrooms. Parking is one low fee (5.00) for the entire day. We also kayaked on the inlet side- very nice. No craziness like at St Pete’s and no astronomical parking fees. Our new fav beach in Fla and we’ve been to many including Siesta Key, Boca Grande, and all beaches south of there.

Fort is from the Spanish American War Days. Fort is interesting but tired. Not kept up well. Signage could be better and more informative. One of the ammunition bunkers has pictures and informative notes but the weather and humidity has made the pictures difficult to read. Would love to see the state kick in more funds to the County to fix up the fort more and redo all the signage and notes. Pay for parking at a kiosk. We paid the max which is $5. It was Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend and was good for all three days. They do enforce as we saw at least two rangers checking cars. (You input your license plate number). But parking fee is good throughout the park. Park has trails for walking and biking. Very long beach with parking areas and cars also park along the road. It is a bit of a walk from parking lots to the water. A farther walk if parking off the road. While the beach is basically the whole length of the island it was crowded. May be due to long holiday weekend and being close to St Pete and Tampa. No shells or sharks’ teeth here. There are life guard stations and rest rooms at the parking lots. And a gift shop at the fort and a couple of snack bars. They have group areas that can be reserved. Also a ferry at the beginning of the park that goes out to one of the islands and many places to put kayaks in the water. Much to do here and close to the city.

We visit this park every time we are in Florida. The highlight is to walk out on the 100’ fishing dock and watch for dolphins. This time we watched three or four of them feeding at the dock for almost an hour. Afterwards be sure to visit the store and get an ice cream cone. Try the Key Lime Pie ice cream! After watching the dolphins and pelicans, we usually set up our chairs along the beach and relax, go for a walk, go for a dip, or have a picnic. In previous visits we toured the old buildings of the fort. Historical and very interesting. For $5.00 parking you can easily make a beautiful day of it. Highly recommend!

Map app led us to a boat launch first as the park entrance. Then we were directed to the park entrance itself. Then had to make a decision East Beach or North Beach. We had no idea. Then without much signage, we followed other cars and ended up at a fishing pier. Were directed further down the road. Drove for quite a distance before seeing signs for North Beach. Exited and walked down to the beach to find........about 2 feet wide and a bit dirty. Asked yet another person what in the heck we were doing wrong and were directed even further down to North Beach proper. Very wide beach indeed with access but infilled water sections with no cross over, so we waded through pools to get to the beach. All in search of shells. LOL Shelling was nice but unimpressive on the whole. Tide had gone out at 11 pm the night before so, inexperienced, we were hoping that arrival immediately in the morning might be productive. We picked up a few things but were confused. Talked to a local who said that he thinks this is the best beach around. Who knows?! It was nearly empty there when we went so early in the am but the parking lot was massive - no doubt this is a major hot spot!!! I was simply stunned by the size of the park itself, just make sure you know where you're going when you get there! The views are beautiful and open, and the beach sand is gorgeous!

Is it better to visit north beach in the morning when the tide is higher or the afternoon when the tide is lower. Looking to see all the live sand dollars that live in the waters around the area.

Even at low tide you have to cross a dip with water to get to the beach. At high tide it may be a bit deep for a beach wagon. But not too deep to walk through. Didn't see any shells or anything on the beach at all. Maybe down farther.

We camped at fort desoto and loved it. We now are becoming concerned about the recent reviews stating there is a rat problem. Why? Any feed back is very welcomed. We are campers and appreciate wildlife however rats are not at the top of my cute critter list. I am hoping for assurance that it is a fluke and not that bad.

We didn’t see any either but we were only in the parking lot for the dog park and on the dog beach. We were there probably 6-8 times during January

I would like to pick up family by water and take them to Egmont Key. Our boat is moored at our house but the long boat ride troubles more sensitive riders. Picking them up at Ft DeSoto would cut their ride by 70%.
What is a good place to pick up a passenger who would park their car on Fort DeSoto?

We were camping so I wasn’t really looking for docks. I seem to recall a dock or pier close to the fort though. There are a couple of marinas on the island before you get to the park. Not sure if they’re public though

I did not see any of either of these, though there were picnic tables near the museum/store.
Has anyone had issues with payment for the fort desoto campsite? I select a site and answer all questions for the prompts and waivers. When I select continue to payment I always get this
