Another Great Florida Beach For Family Vacation

My first post on this blog was about my favorite beach, St. George Island.  Another great Florida beach to visit for a great family vacation or a personal getaway is Cape San Blas.  This beach has white sandy beaches, beautiful dunes, and soft Gulf of Mexico waves.  The Cape is also a peninsula that has a bay side which is perfect for serene getaways.

Cape San Blas is located a few miles to the southeast of Port St. Joe, Florida, and is a couple hours south west of Tallahassee, Fl.  The predominant way to get accommodations at this southern vacation spot is through booking a rental house or condo.  There are great local realtors that manage rentals, but most, including private party rentals, can be accessed by websites like VRBO.

There are multiple public beach access points on the Cape, including Salinas Park and Cape Palms Park.  You should also have an easy time finding accommodations on the beach or bay. 

For more scenery, visit the St. Joseph's State Park on the northern tip of the Cape.  This state park has 10 miles of beach and bay, a boat ramp and basin, picnic areas, along with camping access for tents, RV's or even cabins for rent. 

Across the St. Joseph's Bay from the Cape lies one of the best places to visit in FL: Port St. Joe.  Here you can experience some of the Gulf's best seafood.  At the marina, you can go on an inexpensive charter fishing trip, or go to the marina's restaurant for fresh fish and fresh oysters.
