The surf is up in Flagler Beach. Along with catching waves on the beach with the third largest break in Florida, you may want to simply amble about this inviting beach town. The beach shops and restaurants will make you think you've just stepped in to a Jimmy Buffet song.
Lifeguards are on duty Memorial Day through Labor Day, assuring visitors to the beach have a safe, sunny time at the shore. On 804-foot Flagler Beach Pier, take time to bird watch or cast a line. The locals are always waiting to tell you about the one that got away.
Nineteen miles of off-street bicycling are available along scenic A1A. Riding through areas of unobstructed views of the Atlantic Ocean and beautiful oak-lined hammock will prove to be a breathtaking adventure.

Bulow Plantation is a favorite destination for bird watchers or visitors just out for a relaxing nature walk. Today, a scenic walking trail leads visitors to the ruins of the old sugar mill where visitors can learn about the plantation's history.
In Gamble Rogers Memorial State Recreation Area the wildlife is amazing. Sea turtles lay their eggs here May through September. During the fall bird migration, many species of songbirds can be spotted gracefully flying along the Atlantic flyway, giving visitors an amazing view of wildlife on both the shore and sky. |

By Erin Marvin |
|
|
Remote golden-sand beaches and pristine nature preserves dot the shore. Myriad wildlife, from songbirds and shorebirds flying overhead to sea turtles, dolphins and manatees swimming just off the bow, will be your only companions.

By Terry Tomalin |
|
|
Florida's Gulf coast doesn't offer the surf of the state's Atlantic coast, but all winter, you'll find surfers lined up at the best breaks from St. Petersburg to Venice Inlet and all across the northwest.
