Tourist attraction
πŸ‘πŸ‘ 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...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ 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!

πŸ‘πŸ‘ 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!

South Ponte Vedra Beach Recreation Area

πŸ‘ 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.

North Beach Guana River Preserve
Beach
πŸ‘πŸ‘ 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...
