Situated in the northern stretches of Hialeah just south of Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport, Amelia Earhart Park is a sprawling urban outdoor sports and recreation complex with a fascinating history. The 515-acre park encompasses a soccer complex with four mini fields, a petting zoo, a disc golf course, bike trails, sand volleyball courts, an island playground and an enormous bark park. With multiple lakes, it’s also a one-of-a-kind destination for watersports boasting a state-of-the-art wakeboard park with courses and coaching for riders of all levels. With so much wide open green space, it’s also the perfect park for an afternoon stroll along winding pathways beneath trees and past lakes or to simply sprawl in the grass on a picnic blanket.
