The Journey

Keewaydin Island

Escape to Keewaydin Island, a serene barrier island on Florida's Gulf Coast, accessible only by boat. Spend approximately 1.25 hours exploring its pristine beaches, renowned for shelling opportunities (remember to leave live shells undisturbed!). Traverse a short forest path from the boat landing to the Gulf-facing beach. Here, you can swim in the clear waters, stroll along the shore, or simply bask in the sun. This undeveloped paradise offers a tranquil escape from the mainland, allowing you to reconnect with nature and experience the untouched beauty of Florida. Please note that due to the natural terrain, the island is not wheelchair accessible.

This unique ecosystem, a haven for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts, offers unparalleled opportunities to witness Florida's natural wonders up close. The calm, shallow waters and intricate waterways create a truly unforgettable boating experience.
