Size and bag limits are strictly enforced. All of the current regulations are available at the park. A boat ramp is located in the park allowing small boats and canoes access to the Pellicer Creek. Pellicer Creek is a designated Florida state canoe trail. The creek and tributaries offer a beautiful place to observe the varied bird and marine life of the area.
Canoes are available for rent by advanced reservation.
The park is noted for its pristine condition. While traveling down the unpaved park drives under a canopy of live oak trees, covered resurrection fern and green-fly orchid, one can imagine that they are experiencing Florida as it was in the early 1500's. Some unusual plants grow under the hammock canopy including Indian pipe, spring coralroot, and Florida coontie. Faver-Dykes State Park contains a variety of wildlife habitats and protects several rare and endangered species. The American alligator is abundant in the creek.
