One of just a few remaining undeveloped barrier islands in the north-east part of Florida, the island is home to a wealth of naturally-occurring wildlife, such as marsh rabbits, river otters, bobcats and a host of native and migratory birds.
The park offers a variety of outdoor activities for visitors to enjoy, including hiking, beachcombing, surfing and fishing, and inviting beachside picnic pavilions are ideal for a day at the beach with the family.
