ST. JOSEPH'S SOUND
St. Joseph's sound is only a 2 minute drive from all our homes and is accessible from Stansell Park. The small park has a fishing pier, children’s playground and a bandstand which hosts different musical venues throughout the year.

One of the best times you can have, is to experience a guided Eco- tour which leaves the park and takes you on Kayaks throughout the inlets and mango groves of the sound. www.simplykayaking.com

You will see Natural Florida at its best. The Sound is full of Dolphins, Osprey and all forms of wildlife. You will often see Manatees playing with their young in the shallow waters. It is an experience that you will never forget.

HONEYMOON ISLAND AND STATE PARK
Honeymoon Island is just a 5 minute drive from all our homes.
