Seacrest Soccer Complex and Hilltopper Stadium
The Seacrest Soccer Complex was formerly Atlantic High School. As part of the Bond Referendum voted by the citizens in January 2004, the City was able to purchase eight acres of the land, which included a large multipurpose field, tennis courts, basketball courts and two softball fields. This was done to create a soccer facility to help relieve the scheduling stress at Miller Park.

Ocean Inlet Park
The Boynton Inlet is a surf side paradise of sun and sand. A long time spot for fishing and family play. The Boynton Inlet has a 600 ft beach, jetties for fishing, marina, a playground for the kids, a short walking path and a pavilion for the picnickers.
If you visit the inlet in the later part of the year, October, November, its a good chance you'll find fishermen pulling in lots of fish. This draw is great for the kids who like to get close to nature. If the fish aren't biting, walk over to the playground and let the kids burn off some steam.
Oceanfront Park
This is a wonderful ceanfront park with showers, restrooms and a newly renovated playground (it's pretty awesome now...especially compared to the monstrosity that was there before). The beach is pretty well-maintained by the city and a non-profit volunteer organization also frequently does a clean up here (Sandsifters). There's a nice shaded bench area near the parking lot that overlooks the shore. Very pleasant. Only drawback is that you get charged to park there.

Barton Memorial Park
Not many parks you visit used to be a graveyard! Barton Memorial Park in Boynton Beach still has some old graves (most were relocated to another local cemetary in order to make this a park). Why move graves? I-95. In order to make room for the highway they needed to clear the cemetary. The land was leased from the Florida Department of Transportation by the City starting in 1978. The park consists of 6.4 acres. There is a nature trail and open play area for recreation on site.

This is a relatively new park that was dedicated in 2007. The park is open from sunrise to 9pm.
Pioneer Canal Park
