Honeymoon Island State Park

Gulf barrier-island state park with beaches, slash pine trails and the ferry to Caladesi Island

Honeymoon Island State Park is a Florida state park on a barrier island off Dunedin in Pinellas County, reached by the Dunedin Causeway.

Most visitors come for the beach and the water: swimming, shelling, paddling and fishing, plus a designated pet beach near the island's southern tip.
