I've come here so many different times of year, so many different times of day & I genuinely never see another soul, which is a beautiful thing especially when you consider that this is Florida. It's a really cool wild area that is well cared for. Tate's Hell offers so many on road and off-road capabilities not to mention hikes, campsites & bodies of water. It truly just has a little bit of something for everybody and is beautiful at all times of year no matter if it's day or night! The tree canopy over the road alone makes it worth visiting, especially under a full moon!

Tate's Hell state forest is an exclusive location for hunting. We stopped for an overnight RV camp,…read moreand the facilities included electric hookup, restrooms and boating. The space was secluded in the middle of Hells forest and we had about 2-3 RVs with us making it an exclusive campsite. We were disappointed not finding water hook up which pretty much was only available in the restrooms. It made it difficult for us to use water in the RV itself. There were numerous trucks exclusively for hunting and the area was dotted with many as we drove back. Price was pretty reasonable, under $20 for a day.

Friendly, helpful and a lot of info here. Plus the dog is cute. Great parking area tooread more

Recently, St. George Island was rated in the top 10 beaches in the US, and as I have been there…read moremany times, I would agree. Unfortunately the recent fame may have impacted this quiet uncommercialized family friendly island. This visit was filled with all sorts of redneck behavior from island guests. Our neighbors, following an all day beach drunk fest, busted glass, screamed, and fought into the wee hours of the morning. We witnessed a good bit more "recreational drug use", which is not normal for this place, and we ran into 10 or so small groups of beach fisherman who were targeting shark which is a no no on a busy beach. I'm pleased that the clear water, white beach, and the lack of commercialization is still there, but I'm disappointed that St. George has made the fatal turn of turning into a little PCB. I'm sad to say that I may be changing my beach destination in the future. Please come back to me St. George Island that I have come to love.

The water, sand, sun and sky have always held magic, like religion for free spirited souls. I come here to disconnect on many levels but also to connect with a sense of calmness that only exist by the sea. Some beaches are filled by the masses they flock and frolic and fill every inch of real estate, some beaches seem abandoned, deserted and sacred, that's where you'll find me. Carrabelle Beach is calm, it's tranquil, peaceful and historic. The "forgotten coast" is the last remaining stretch of unspoiled, pristine Gulf Coast beaches, it's like no other and I have experienced many, for me there may not be a better place to do nothing...

It's a major park and it's quite unexpected along this stretch of beach. Plenty of good parking and a concrete structure with restrooms. [Review 14685 overall, 185 of 2021, number 1249 in Florida.]

"On my highway I missed some signs And left a damn good life behind, I see it in my rearview like a…read moreghost. On my highway, I've broken down And cried when no one else was around & prayed that God would save my soul. Yeah, I've paid a lot of heavy tolls. But what a feeling chasing the sun Living my life like it's shot from a gun, laughing a little bit more with every mile. Oh, what a freedom racing the wind, dying to know what's around the next bend And smiling as I watch the years roll by, I'm learning how to take it day by day, on my highway." When I was growing up around these parts we lived for summer break & beautiful Mexico Beach. Highway 98 runs from Pirate'cola to Mexico Beach. We called it "Adventure Road" 2 & 1/2 hours of stunning beach after beach, sugar white sands & emerald green waters. The most beautiful beaches in the United States are on the gulf of Mexico. Navarre, Ft Walton Beach, Destin, Panama City etc., gorgeous beaches all the way down to desolate, Mexico Beach. Back then, you could drive your truck right onto Mexico beach, build a campfire in the sand. Camp right beside the ocean. Those were the days my friend, those were the days. My memories drift back often of Mexico Beach, us 3 kids on summer break. 16 Year olds going on 30, we were inseparable. Back then, I had a pink Flamingo colored side step Ford. My brother, his best friend moi boyfriend riding shotgun, in the back, a dog named "Masquerade" & 3 surf boards. Those were the days, wild & free on "adventure road" my highway, just like Jason Aldean sings about in his song. And yes, along the way, we have all paid a lot of heavy tolls. October 2018 Hurricane Michael made landfall near Mexico Beach with 160 mile per hour winds & a 17-and-a-half-foot storm surge. It was a Category 5 hurricane, one of the most powerful storms ever to hit the United States. Now, here we are, 5 years later. I'm back on my highway, "Adventure Road" back to Mexico Beach & it has never been more beautiful. It's been years, but here we are. Sunsets lost, have been again found, and the sound of the waves mingle with the familiar voices of all the ones we lost, along the way. As the waves roll by, their voices linger, for a while, then drown silently, in the sound of the crashing swells, washing away into a blur. Some things have changed, but many, remain the same, as Mexico Beach, re-emerges anew. As the sun goes down on Mexico Beach, the old memories wash away in the foamy white tides like old scattered photographs. Faded memories of a flamingo pink Ford rolling down adventure road.. My brother, his best friend moi boyfriend, riding shotgun, in the back, a dog named "Masquerade" & 3 surf boards.. Welcome back Mexico Beach.
