KATHRYN ABBEY HANNA PARK REVIEWS
We camped there for a few days. It was GREAT! So many things to do: beach, trailers, canoes, fishing, biking, playgrounds, etc. I want to make a special mention of the amazing service at the campground/park little store, it was outstanding. The owner and the guy that worked there were just plain good and decent people. Great park for camping!
One of my favorite parks in the whole state. Wonderful beaches, biking & walking trails, nice surfing, great camping, ponds, picnic areas, a wedding pavilion, and just overall peace. The staff is very professional, warm, and accommodating. In Jax, this is a place to rest, be at peace, get away from the traffic, and the rest of the world.
Love camping here and riding the MTB trails! Both our visits have been in February and we're looking forward to staying during summer to enjoy the beach!!

JACKSONVILLE ARBORETUM & GARDENS REVIEWS
Beautiful grounds and trails. The makes and trail markets make hiking and walking here easy. There is plenty of wildlife (we saw rat snakes and garter snakes) and hundreds of incredible plants and trees; all clearly marked for you to enjoy. There are so many lovely trails to walk, and plenty of benches or clearings where you can sit to rest and let the kids enjoy a snack or lunch. We can't wait to go back.!!
Love coming here to walk along the trails and the lake. I love looking at all the wildlife, I usually see a couple of lizards, different fish, turtles, and sometimes a hawk but today I got to see a cute little otter rolling around in the water!!
Absolutely beautiful place to experience nature. Paths are wide and clearly marked; there are labels on nearly every plant and tree; lots of educational and explorable opportunities on the trails and a great place to enjoy a nice little lunch in the open air!!

LITTLE TALBOT ISLAND STATE PARK REVIEWS
Miles of wild beach. Easy to find a private spot. Lots of nature, wildlife, wildflowers, gopher tortoises, etc. The ranger said they've lost 100 feet of the beach already to sea-level rise. The high tides are up into the sea oats and dunes. I've been coming here for 35 years. Seeing the trees die/dunes disappear and knowing what's in store with climate change is a little sad. But beauty and wild energy are what Little Talbot is all about. Come explore here! Outdoor showers, changing rooms, and picnic tables. Bring drinking water!
Really great for bird watching. If you go to the dock in the early mornings depending on the time of year you'll see a large variety of wading birds including roseate spoonbills. The wooded areas between campsites are also filled with woodpeckers, warblers, thrushes, chickadees, and titmice you just need to sit for a while and let your eyes follow the songs to find them. The beaches are also great for laughing gulls, brown pelicans, willets, ruddy turnstones, sanderlings, royal terns, and sometimes even a Caspian tern.
This park has a beautiful 4-mile walking trail that ends on the beach that is covered in beautiful driftwood and thousands of shells.
