Things to Do in St. George Island State Park

1. Relax on the Beach

The park has miles of unspoiled, white-sand beaches, making it one of the best spots on the Forgotten Coast for sunbathing, shelling, or just unwinding. The crowds are minimal compared to other Florida beaches, so you can claim a quiet spot and enjoy the sound of the waves.

HIGHTOWER SPRINGS, FLORIDA

 

Each time we visit Florida, we make it a point to explore as many springs as possible. On our most recent trip, we had the chance to visit Hightower Springs, Ponce de Leon, Pitt & Silvan, and Morrison Springs. While Hightower was likely the smallest of the bunch and we didn’t stay long, it was still a stunning spot. Even in February, the beauty of the place was undeniable, and it was definitely worth the stop.
