saint george island state park

State park is very nice, good shells, beaches are so desolate, we walked for miles and miles, never seen another person.

Went there on bike ride with a group of friends,we liked the whole island!Has a nice feel to it,not over crowded with big hi rise condo's and junk!A good place to get away at.

Here is old Florida barrier island, preserved. Clean with good facilities, but not so much as to detract from the pristine nature here. Excellent!

If you have never seen a real, old Florida beach, go here. Big Dunes. Long stretches with few people and defintely no condos. Monarch butterflies and birds stop here first after crossing the Gulf of Mexico. Well worth the admission.

this is a must trip over the awesome bridge to the island. The lighthouse is super neat, and there are shops to shop at and restaurants. Super clear beaches and white sand for miles. There are also condos, and other places to stay. makes a super vacation stop for familes or anyone

If you come in the winter months hoping to find summer-like weather, you could be really disappointed. Winters here can be really cold and windy, or mild and sunny. The water is too cold to swim in during the winter also.

It has several miles of beach. You can go on the bayside or oceanside. The boat ramps are on the bayside. It is very shallow. Local knowledge would be a big plus to have before taking a boat out. The oyster beds are visible. The campground is close to the ocean, but you can't see the ocean from the campsites. There is no sewer, but they have very nice showers. We had to change campsites due to reservations. The nicest camp host coordinated the moves for all of us that had to move to a different site. He came to our door the minute our next campsite was ready to tell us we could move. That was a first for us. What a nice thing to do. He kept that place running smooth. The very best place to get shells in the park is a five mile bicycle ride to the east end of the island. The trail is sandy and can be windy. It feels uphill all the way back. The shells are real nice. We also rode our bicycles in town. There were nice bicycle paths. There is a public restroom in the park right in town. Convenient place to park car. I think there is one gas station on the island and a small grocery store. The temperature was cool while we were there. When the wind died down, the no- see-ums came out quickly. There are several very nice beach access areas with restrooms and showers. Good places for an RV to park for the day. Dogs can't go on the beach in the park, but I did see dog beaches in town. This is a great place to kayak. There is a kayak overnight area at one end. There is a large nest there with eagles flying around.

St. George Island is the perfect getaway for anyone wanting some fun in the sun or peace and relaxation. My husband and our 4 kids camp at the state park at least 5-10 times during the summer months, sometimes more. The campsites are kept very nice and clean and they are probably the best sites out of any that we have camped at in the Florida panhandle. The beach is not too far from the campsites, within walking distance, or you can drive and park in the big lot they have with the restrooms available. Beaches are out of this world beautiful. All the park rangers are nice and friendly and always make us feel welcome. My kids love that we can go down to the beach at night and fish and hang out. Last time we went back in June 2014, there were starfish covering the beach, which was amazing and they loved it so much. If you are looking for somewhere that's not crowded to have a good time with your family, St. George Island State Park is definitely the place to go!

It was kind of cool the day we visited so walking the beaches was not as pleasant as the nature trail we walked. What a variety of plants. Enjoyed the day.

This is the beach for squeaky sand between your toes, snd it doesn't stick to your body. You will lay on shore and spot dolphins swimming, and see occasional sgarks, turtles and other sea creatures in the water. Yes, it's safe waters.

We loved this park and setting. Spectacular really. Unfortunately the weather was cool and it was foggy but that even added an element of fun to the park. Highly recommend for camping.

Its a really great place to visit. It was cold and damp when we visited but obviously popular, RV's and cars were rolling in.

nice beach with convenient restrooms, grills, vending. Nature trails, camping and nice parking. bay and ocean access.

Had some rainy weather while on the island, but just as soon as we got a break, we went to the park. There are more amenities than years ago when we use to come to the island regularly.Now they have bathrooms, showers, picnic area,camping, tenting, fishing with permitted area, and nature walk trail.It's still a peaceful spot to take in the sea air, hunt for shells,fly kites, and enjoy the sandy prestine beach, as we did long ago. I would assume there would be more foot traffic in the peak seasons. At the far end we saw no one, as we walked for about 3 hours.Wonderful Christmas Gift for us!

Our schedule only permitted a drive to Sugar Hill Beach and several stops for photos. Abundant bird life, interesting high dunes covered with plenty of Fall color, spectacular white powder beaches (empty except for shells), beautiful vistas across coves to the mainland, photo ops at every turn. Did not check out any facilities but our host said they were excellent and operated by a first-rate, knowledgeable staff. We need to return.
