Davis Beach & Cypress Point Park

Davis Island Beach is located on the southeast side of Davis Islands. This is a small beach and has two distinct portions. The northern portion is Davis Islands Dog Beach. Just to the south after passing the boat launches you will come to the Davis Island Beach which overlooks the Seaplane Basin and the yachts.

Cypress Point Park is hidden away to the west of Westshore Plaza. I'm always surprised to see how few people come here. Beautiful sunsets, white sand and plenty of parking. There is a playground, restroom facilities and nearby restaurants.
