Lonely Planet review for Canoeing, Fishing, Walking & Picnicking
The Hugh Taylor Birch State Recreation Area has recently undergone a major renovation of trails and landscaping and contains one of the last significant maritime hammocks left in Broward County. There are also mangroves, a freshwater lagoon system and several endangered plant and animal species (including the gopher tortoise and golden leather fern). You can fish, picnic, hike, canoe or bike. Canoe rentals, to be used on the half-mile trail, cost about US$6 per hour.
