Barefoot Beach

Preserve County Park

This park is 342 acres of natural land,

one of the last undeveloped barrier

islands on Florida’s Southwest Coast.

It is popular for its beautiful, superb

surroundings and great opportunities

for avid fishermen, who enjoy many

types of fish in the area. The inland

side of the island provides tidal

creeks and mangrove swamps which

serve as breeding areas and as a

nursery for sport and commercial fish

and shellfish. There is also one-mile

nature trail available which is great

for bird watching! Find out complete

information on their web site at http://

Mexico water has been rated as one

of the best beaches in the nation

several times! This park is popular for

sunbathing, shelling, wading in the

water, paddle boarding, snorkeling

and more! Kayakers can enjoy

paddling through estuaries or out

into the Gulf. Both saltwater and

freshwater fishing are available. There

is a hard bottom reef 80-100 feet from
