Gulfstream Park

 

Map & Directions

Gulfstream Park is located just north of Gulf Stream on SR-A1A. The outcrops are located south of the park and extend along the shore for 0.4 miles (0.6 km). Both small and large burrows cover much of the upper surface of the rock. Planar bedding is easily seen, and both herringbone and avalanche cross-bedding can be found. Laminated calcium carbonate crusts litter the surface. A notched cliff marks the outcrop, and there are numerous sea caves that have been filled in by cement.
