150 Steps to Sugar White Sandy Beach

Location

Florida, Florida Panhandle, Cape San Blas

Neighborhood

Cape San Blas is truly one of the last unspoiled areas of Florida's Panhandle. Cape San Blas has relatively little development... no high-rise condos, no traffic (not even a traffic light), and no fighting for position on the beach as the beaches are quiet and uncrowded…even during peak season. Enjoy the white sand, unspoiled, dog friendly beaches and turquoise water of the Florida Panhandle!

You'll love the white quartz sand that doesn't burn your feet, the sand dunes that give the setting character, and the gentle Gulf waves. The fishing is great, the crabbing fun and the activities abound from boating, hiking, tennis to impromptu socials. All of life becomes casual and fun once you breathe the glorious salt air and let go of what you left behind.

Far from the crowded beaches you've been to, on a beautiful spit of land surrounded by shimmering waters and abutting a pristine State Wildlife Park you'll find Barrier Dunes, the pride of Cape San Blas. If you enjoy incredible white sand beaches that offer miles of shoreline to discover, a calmer yet extremely friendly group of vacationers and casual relaxed fun, STOP! You need look no more!

Cape San Blas is the place to go if you want magical ambiance and sheer romance. The dunes remain in their natural state..in some places up to 30 ft. high. Walking in the wooded dunes is a real treat. There are no bars or motels on the Cape and traffic is usually limited to people renting homes, state park visitors and homeowners. Cape San Blas is sparsely developed with plenty of open areas for meandering. If you need a restful break, this is the place!

St. Joseph Peninsula State Park is located right next door to Barrier Dunes and offers excellent access to the bay as well as 7 miles of undeveloped, unpaved pristine wilderness area, bay access, & beach. The park also has a boat ramp! The clear water bay is one of the cleanest in Florida & provides excellent snorkeling, boating, fishing, crabbing & scalloping.

Apalachicola is only 20 minutes away and has some quaint shops and great restaurants. Panama City Beach is just over an hour. Spend your days relaxing on the beach without the crowds, take an evening stroll, ride horseback on the beach or enjoy a glass of wine watching the fantastic sunsets over the Gulf.
