Fort De Soto Park

1 of 4

Enjoy the breathtaking natural beauty of Florida without the crowds of tourists at Fort De Soto Park, where shelling, swimming, and strolling along the white powdered sand beaches are all top priorities. Colorful seashell gems may be found throughout the beach's lengthy stretch of sand, making for a one-of-a-kind memento. Sand dollar shells, lightning whelk shells, and jingle shells are among the many seashells that wash up on the shores.

While relaxing on the beach or kayaking close to the calm water's edge at Fort De Soto, you will find yourself completely engaged in the profusion of natural beauty that extends as far as the eye can see in every direction. Although the intricacy of the environment is not immediately evident, the park contains the largest diversity of ecological systems found anyplace in the world. Fort De Soto is a magnificent tapestry that emerges from the abundance of birdlife, marine life, animal life, and plant life that surrounds it.
