We went to a local park last weekend called St. Lucie Inlet Preserve State Park. It’s accessible only by boat. The boardwalk is 3,000 ft long, and it took a good 15 minutes to walk past two structures, through thousands of mangroves, and over a bridge. I wouldn't do it again, but it was nice one time. :)
We tied up the boat and after leaving a donation in the box, we headed to the shore.
Below: much of the walk from the intercoastal to the ocean looks like this.
This sign got me excited...what was around the bend...is it something I would be tempted to take???
Good plants?…drift wood?…
See the ground cover below that looks like straight lines of rope? They are railroad vines and are native to this area. They have pretty purple flowers and help prevent beach erosion. They are all over the dunes here in South Florida.
Below: we finally reached the beach…looks just like all the other beaches in town, except there were no people.
After the park, we hit the local sandbar near Sailfish Point. John used his new boat grill and made a delicious chicken sandwich.
