Whether you're planning a family outing, a romantic sunset stroll, or a day of beach games, Englewood Beach at Chadwick Park offers the perfect setting for a memorable coastal experience. Amenities include restrooms, showers, water stations, volleyball courts, a basketball court, horseshoe pits, and a playground area. There are also four small shelters with picnic tables and grills, as well as three large pavilions available for rent—ideal for birthday parties, family reunions, or other special events.
Accessing the beach is convenient, with parking available and a free park-and-ride shuttle service from Tringali Park. Beach wheelchairs are also available on a first-come, first-served basis, ensuring everyone can enjoy the beach.
While it sees increased visitors during the winter "snowbird" season, it retains a laid-back charm throughout the year. The beach boasts a gently sloping bottom and calm waters—ideal for toddlers, wading, and swimming.
Shelling is popular here, especially for fossilized shark teeth—look during low tide or after storms.
Wildlife sightings often include dolphins, manatees, pelicans, herons, and seasonal turtle nests.
Water sports such as kayaking, paddleboarding, and snorkeling are frequently enjoyed in the calm Gulf waters.
Nearby areas like Stump Pass Beach State Park and Blind Pass Beach offer more secluded nature, dunes, and trails along the barrier island.
