C. Up near Jacksonville, you will find one of the more famous parks, Gamble Rogers State Park. This resort is located in the middle of the Intercoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean.

Take a late afternoon/early evening walk on the beach and watch as mother sea turtles lay and hide their eggs and do not forget to pick up some of millions of sea shells waiting as a reminder of your wonderful trip.
D. If you enjoy fresh water, then you might consider Gold Head Branch. Located between Jacksonville and Gainsville, this spot has been a favorite for years. This 2300 acre park is the home of Bald Eagles, Gopher Tortoises, Fox Squirrels, Foxes, Snakes and other Florida furry animals. The fall is a wonderful time to visit this resort as wildflowers are in full bloom and the park feels, looks and smells wonderful.
