Awoke and went to the pier before sunrise. Parking is not expensive, but it was difficult to read the machine in the dark. I walked along the pier for $2.00, photographing the sunrise and the pier activities. One of my favorite places in S. Florida!

After dinner near by, my wife and I walked out on the pier. It was night, so we could not see much of the ocean, but the stars were spectacular. The pier is well lighted and looking back at the lit up shore line was worth the $1 per person they charge for “sightseeing”.

Not sure what makes it an international pier as it looks like all the others I have seen in FL and NC. All that I have been on, for the most part, charge a fee; a fee for spectators and a different fee for those who fish. This has a place to eat and naturally a gift shop. Limited parking and I believe metered parking but we walked to the pier from our hotel so no exactly sure of details. Just a block from the pier are other shops and restaurants as well.

I want to share my story so people be aware of what’s going on with this employee that is not educated about what a service dog is. I went last Tuesday to the pier to walk and I was not allowed to get in with my service dog, I try to talk with this woman about it and she asked me questions about my illness, something cannot be asked by law, she just denied the access, I try to talk to the supervisor and she just shut down the window and never let me read where is not allowed to let service dogs in. I am so disappointed about this situation, honestly I was never treated like that before in my life, she totally ignored me without haven’t fundaments about her decision, and this should not be happening at a beautiful place like this and they should teach all their employees so they stop being rude

Maybe I was hoping or set expectations too high. Average pier. A very small shaded area but most of the pier was so packed with fishermen you couldn’t actually stand under that shaded area to get a small reprieve from the sun. Fish bait and guts were all over. Most of the fishermen were super rude and so annoyed people were out there and they had to actually watch how they were casting their lines. Definitely a beautiful view and the water is so clear you can see lots of fish swimming around. Then when you turn around and see the shore and land it’s really beautiful too. Closes at 11pm so be aware if you’re out late ; don’t plan on being allowed to walk out there. It’s $2/person if you’re not a FL resident. My bf grew up here so it was mainly a trip down memory lane for him so definitely worth going for us!

This pier is in the perfect spot. I didn’t get to fish this time but will definitely bring my gear next time. There were plenty of people catching fish and the pier entrance is in the heart of Deerfield Beach and convenient to everything.

Great set up with cleaning stations on the pier. Staff was super friendly and once you pay to get on the pier, you can come back all day. Walking on the pier was great and there is an under water camera off the end. Definitely will return.

Perfectly located and equipped IFP is a marker and serves as a face for The City of Deerfield Beach. This facility provides and supports variety of activities and is capable to satisfy very sophisticated needs starting from fishing and finishing with snorkeling and SCUBA-diving. Right next to IFP (a little toward to the north) very diverse Turtle Reef or Boundary Reef is located, and this reef is easily reachable from the shore.

Nice pier to walk. We did not pay to enter on Christmas, but it seems is 1$. We parked free on the cove shopping center and walked for 15min to get here. I think maybe we did not pay cause we did not have access to the full pier, the final small square was closed.

Taking a stroll along the pier is a relaxing experience. There are a lot of benches in case you want to sit and enjoy the view. You are able to fish from the pier and there are several fish cleaning stations and waste receptacles available. The pier is very clean and does not smell "fishy". There are rods available for rent and bait is available at the pier store. It costs $1.00 to enter the pier. This is a great spot to take a stroll and enjoy some fresh air!
