Reviews
"Nice beach! Soft sand, lots of small shells and sharks teeth. Good kayak launch on the channel side!"
"One of my favorite beaches in all of Florida. Natural beauty and beautiful water. Great for long walks."
"Stump Pass is my favorite beach in the Englewood area. The parking lot is small so if you don't get there early, you will have to wait to get in. There's a $3 honor system at an unmanned station after you park. You can enter the beach from the pay station or you can continue past the bath house. There you can go right into the beach or continue down a partially shaded path nearly to the end on the beach, to the pass. Many boats park on the Lemon Bay side on the peninsula. There are lots of shells and sharks teeth. Happy hunting! I almost forgot, there's a kayak launch on the left in the middle of the parking lot. Dogs are allowed on the Bayside but not on the beach."
"Definitely worth the stop. Very clean and great paths all the way to the pass. The only problem is the parking, during the busy season its almost impossible to find a spot. I recommend riding your bike. Or ebike."
"Beautiful beach with lots of shells. Water was a little rough when we went and a lot of the shell were broken. Also the nature trail was closed, so we were unable to go all the way to the end."
