Hoechoka Hammock is located in the middle of the 24 acre site for the Church Mary Help of Christians at Sawgrass and University in the N.E. quadrant. The Hammock proper is reached by entering the church entrance road, turn left at the mailbox and park on the first grass island. The hammock is approached by walking up the white sand entrance way. A shade tent with chairs is visible (bird feeder area). The hammock is obvious and the trails are clear.
