Area Information

Cape San Blas is one of the Florida's rarest finds
This slender peninsula of sugar-white sand juts into the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico in the center of Florida's northwest coastline
Barrier Dunes is a gated community development located just outside the gates of the State Park. Townhomes and palm trees, sand dunes and sea oats, lakes, boardwalks and beaches all blend to create a peaceful unspoiled environment in which to live and play. Many homes are available for weekend or week-long vacation stays. Some are rented by the month.

Attractions Within Walking Distance
