Why Kids Love It

Literally feet from the beach, kids can run to the beach in less than a minute and spend the day swimming, fishing, skim boarding, body surfing and building sand castles.

The family can rent a pontoon boat at the park that is feet from the house, go to the tip of the Cape and view all of the incredible sea creatures, including sea horses, sea urchins, sand dollars, dolphins and sharks.

Getting a turtle filter for your flashlight and walking on the beach at night looking for ghost crabs.

Horseback riding on the beach at Salinas Park is THE BEST!

Area Information

Cape San Blas is a narrow stretch of land that extends out from Port St. Joe and curves around St. Joseph Bay in the Florida Panhandle. The Cape offers a variety of water sports, including swimming, fishing, kayaking, boating, and snorkeling. The absence of high rise buildings and commercialization has helped the Cape maintain its unspoiled beauty and laid-back charm.

Some can't-miss attractions include:
Loggerhead Trail, an 8.7-mile paved pathway that runs the length of the Cape for walking, running and biking.

Salinas Park boasts both Beach Access and Bay Access. You'll also find Serenity Trail, pickle ball courts, volleyball courts, a playground, horseback riding on the beach and screened-in pavilions for picnics.

St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, offers 1,900 acres of tranquil beaches and hiking along two nature trails. The park offers boat, kayak and paddle board rentals to explore one of the least populated and richest ecosystems along the Florida Coastline.

Favorite Places To Eat

The sunsets at Bluewater Beach House are unparalleled, so we recommend breakfast, lunch and dinner on the screened porch with takeout from the following:
Doughnuts from Weber's at the Trading Post--a Cape tradition. Get in line early! We recommend the maple croissants with pecans on top! Coffee and doughnuts on the porch listening to the waves crashing and watching the dolphins....
Fresh seafood takeout on the porch from St Joe Shrimp Company or Scully's Low Country Boil on the Cape, or order fresh caught seafood from the Shrimp Ladies who deliver.
After sunset--a bike ride to the Trading Post for ice cream.....another Cape tradition!
If you must leave the beach.....
Longbills is less than a mile from the house. We love the fish taco's and salted caramel cheesecake--and it's pet friendly, so bring your furry family member and hang out on the screened porch. Peachy's, next to the Trading Post on the Cape has incredible fish and shrimp taco's. The Cape Smokehouse--the best burnt ends! The Indian Pass Raw Bar around the corner from the Cape is famous--it has been in the New York Times!
For special occasions we recommend The White Marlin and Provisions in Port St Joe and the Franklin Cafe at the historic Gibson Inn in Apalachicola. Joe Mama's for Pizza, Peppers and Quattro Loco for Mexican and TIGF for French in Port St Joe, and The Hole in the Wall for great seafood in Apalachicola.
