View Public Art in Ponte Vedra

Bird Island Park is a must-visit for both locals and visitors. While many come to enjoy the diverse flora and fauna as they stroll the grounds, the park also offers a variety of unique public art experiences. The Mosaic Amphitheater, for example, showcases colorful tile interpretations of the area’s wildlife. Each tier represents a different habitat—Freshwater Marsh, Coastal Dune, and Upland Hammock—featuring butterflies, otters, alligators, pelicans, and wild hogs.

Scattered throughout the park, you’ll find sculptures that capture the imagination, from a child quietly reading a book to a whimsical, oversized turtle. Don’t miss the Turtle Maze, a large hedged sea turtle complete with shade trees and four art-adorned benches in the center, offering a perfect spot to pause, relax, and take in your surroundings.
