👍👍 I loved our visit today! Even though it was a crowded tour, they had several guides and didn't rush us. Sandra was a knowledgeable guide and we learned a lot. I highly recommend as it's a 1.5 hour tour that's up close to the animals and a good deal for $35. *I did not take these photos but bought th...

👍👍 Beautiful white sand beach, with the finest, softest sand I've experienced. Just a short walk to the parking lot that seems to always have spots available - and FREE parking at that! Park also features a covered picnic table area, outdoor showers, and restrooms. The restrooms aren't pristine in any...

👍👍 Great spot to enjoy a great day at the beach. Restrooms, outdoor rinse showers, picnic tables, and plenty of parking. Dog friendly, and the beach is easily accessible by a boardwalk that gets you over the dunes. Its fairly level too, with only a slight drop and rise. Highly recommended!

👍👍 This beach access is best during the week otherwise on the weekends the parking lots are full. There is so much beach here on both sides of the highway you are sure to find your own spot if you want to be away from people. The wooden boardwalk is nice and overlooks the intra coastal waterway (ICW...

👍 Perfect place for us to stop and enjoy the ocean on our drive to St Augustine. The area had picnic tables to enjoy lunch. There are no stairs from the picnic area to the beach. It can be a steep climb down the sandy hill. The area we explored was a beach that was located near residential property o...

👍👍 This beach is the perfect little hidden gem. Tucked away from the rest of the beaches up above it, there are no houses along the beach and it is much less developed. Way fewer people than Mickler's Landing and Jacksonville Beach, making it a very nice, quiet, semi- secluded beach. There is also a...

👍👍 On a cloudy day, this place seems like walking in heaven. The river and clouds merge together to create an enchanting world.

👍👍 🏖 If you want seclusion, this is the spot. Gourgeus beach. There are barely any people here. 🅿️ The parking is across A1A. There are plenty of parking spaces. It costs $3.00 to park.

👍👍 There are few parking spaces, but the place looks very nice and away from the city. Lots of shells and clear ocean. This is a beautiful and peaceful place to relax.

👍👍 When it comes to airboat rides this is the one.

Great tour with amazing people energy.Do it , no hesitation!!! Reservations...

200+ acre barrier island & site of the 1700s Spanish Fort Matanzas, today a National Monument.

👍👍 My wife and I live about 20 minutes away and love visiting Guana. The dam has a beautiful trail to walk and we frequently bring the kayaks down and have explored both above and below the dam. I usually bring my poles to fish as well. There are multiple beach pull offs along the way if you want to h...

👍👍 Just a little stop with a boat ramp and some picnic tables on the St. Johns's River. But the views were so nice, especially as the sun was going down. And it is so very well maintained! Clean and manicured looking while still keeping that natural touch. If you are looking for a well-maintained and q...
