Steps off the sand on Hollywood Beach's famous Broadwalk, Charnow Park's free splash fountain sits beside shaded seating, picnic pavilions and paddleball courts that have anchored this stretch since the 1930s. It is the easiest way to rinse off beach sand with kids in tow.
What's on site. OpenStreetMap maps parking at this location. No public toilets are mapped here — worth knowing before you commit to an afternoon.
