Description

With more than five miles of beautiful, white sandy beaches, Little Talbot Island is one of the few remaining undeveloped barrier islands in Northeast Florida. Maritime forests, desert-like dunes, and undisturbed salt marshes on the western side of the island allow for hours of nature study and relaxation. The diverse habitats in the park host a wealth of wildlife for viewing including river otters, marsh rabbits, bobcats, and a variety of native and migratory birds.



Surrounding surf and tidal streams present excellent fishing for bluefish, striped bass, redfish, flounder, mullet, and sheepshead. Other popular park activities include hiking, kayaking, beachcombing (use of metal detectors is prohibited north of the first boardwalk and landward of the last high tide line), surfing and picnicking. Beachside picnic pavilions are available for use by park visitors and can be reserved in advance for a fee.



A full facility campground is located along the eastern salt marshes of Myrtle Creek. The close proximity to the tidal creek provides great recreational opportunities for campers but sites close to the creek, specifically sites 16, 34, 35, and 36, are subject to flooding during the extreme tides associated with a full moon, a new moon, or a strong storm. These natural events should be taken into consideration when selecting a camping site. For more information about camping at the park, contact the Ranger Station at 904-251-2320. To reserve a campsite call Reserve America at 1-800-326-3521.
