Its white sand beach for miles by hwy 30A.  And right around sunrise and sunset you get some very nice  Light
Much of St. George Island on Florida's Gulf coast has its native eco-system of dunes, marsh, and pine forest preserved in a state park.

Love Margarittaville places. Staff were super kind and helpful. The room needed a little deep cleaning - walls were marked up and stairs were dirty. We also found drink tops under the nightstand. Otherwise, it was a fabulous place.
