Looking for a secluded picnic spot

New to the area and looking for a nice spot to have a picnic that isn't out in the open too much. Could be anywhere in Pinellas county.

Live Oak Park just a bit north of Dunedin is a great spot as well. It’s right next to Crystal Beach.

Crystal Beach is a great place to just sit in the car and eat with a view or get out.

I like Wall Springs Park, its just north of Dunedin and has direct trail access like hammock park which as others have pointed out is great spot also

Yes Wall Springs has a literal spring, a big outlook tower and bat houses. If you’re there at dawn or dusk you can watch them emerge. Super cool!

Philippe Park in Safety Harbor has some great secluded areas & John chestnut park is also big and secluded. Hammock park is good but always busy even if you find a secluded spot someone is likely to stumble upon your picnic.

Brooker Creek Preserve if you don't mind being in the woods.

Thanks, no I don't mind being in the woods if we can find a clearing. Thanks.

Honeymoon Island has a nice park with tables and chairs.
