I can’t believe that we only recently heard about this place. It’s fabulous and very accessible to all South Floridians, being just west of West Palm Beach. There is so much to do and see here, you will want to visit time and time again. The preserve is quite large with 23 square miles, and […]
Kayaking in South Florida
A Quick Escape From City Life – Kayaking In John D MacArthur Beach State Park
Always looking for new things to do that afford a quick escape from city life, we stumbled across the only State Park in Palm Beach County. And it doesn’t disappoint. Once you get there, you are greeted by a lush canopy on the way to the car park, and this is only the beginning. It feels […]
Kayaking And Snorkeling At Historic Virgina Key Beach Park – The Antidote To South Beach
