Walking tour around Robert K Rees Memorial Park in New Port Richey.

This is a community park consisting of 45 acres located right on the Gulf of Mexico. There is a 650' boardwalk that takes you through the mangroves and wetland property to the north side of the park and has a small two-deck observation tower where you can spot dolphins, sea cranes and other birds migrating around the area and is very peaceful and calming.

There are several picnic tables and charcoal grills for the public to use. Bring the entire family and have a small picnic on the beach or host a birthday party outdoors. There is a playground with slides, swings, spring toys and even a pirate ship with a slide that children will enjoy.

    Visited many times but now must be some twelve years since I have been there. How little it has changed. Surprised how few people there.

    Yet again I watch and enjoy this video. Not been there for more than ten years. Visited Florida in past and often stayed in NPR. This and Hudson Park is where we spent our daytimes. Usually hot enough in Autumn and Spring but heat not oppresive. We had lunch picnics here having bought our food in Publix. Now in our eighties we are unlikely to go travelling so far now. This video reminds us of what we are missing. Good video.
  • Is it warm in April in New Port Richey can we swim in pool and ocean end of April?

    Strange that the pier at keen reives Park Newport Richey FL is made out of inferior grade wood that is not just more experience in the long run but is becoming very dangerous, I just did a quick inspection and I found large pieces of wood missing. And they used inferior grade fasteners ! This is substandard for residential duty. Why does this town get substandard materials ? With so many $ 500000. Home's near by and they can't afford to keep the children safe with all that tax money ,, what an outrage. We don't even get Cyprus mulch in the play ground like other cities we get pine chips full of sap . Well, we did get a very nice aluminum and railing . And they did a few patches on the intrance road but didn't. Do everything. And after only complaining for about three years that someone was trying to kill people with the gates, they will replaced it , and their was a speed limit sign that was way too fast for the area next to where the bike rider got killed by a vehicle , well some complaining got it removed. That mistake should have prompted a review of the area and then they would have moved the stop signs with the wrong amount of set back . I can go on and on. The lights at Sims park to cross the road are a total death trap , as so many people don't know to stop and will hit the pediatricians. Fdot is not making repairs and people keep getting hurt including my self. Don't worry , when a handycapt person has to citizen arrest a terrorist causing car and bikes to crash, the police arevright behind me to let him go ! I guess I should have arested the police too , The police and fire department use military technology and they can't even figure out the obvious ? The bike lane is also sabatodged , due to the over lap of pavement in the middle of it. Is this stuff that difacult to figure out or do they want us to die or be injured ?
