    You can rent bikes for $5.00. Great deal. So bike the trails then cool off at the beach. Great family spot.

    Beautiful trails perfect for walking running and biking. Something other to do than just go to the beach. But you can find a beautiful little one here if you look hard enough.

    Be sure to check out the trail center, free maps and information about the park and the staff is really friendly. The bald cypress trail is beautiful!

    Just took the family this last weekend. The kids were happy to be able to take our dog Jasmine out to hike the trails. The trails were very well maintained and pretty to walk through.

    First Landing State park is a good place for people to take their bike to ride in a nice 12 mile round trip bike ride. Also there is many miles of walking only trails to.

    If you're on the east side of the park or riding your bike in from the boardwalk, get on the trail from the 64th Street entrance.

    Prior to establishing Jamestown, the earliest settlers made their first contact with American soil here over 400 years ago. At the time the area was nothing but sand dunes. More in this C-SPAN video. Read more
