Hubby took me for a ride on Saturday. We drove north on US19 and made some unique discoveries.
The first place was Fort Island Gulf Beach. Driving about 10 miles west of US 19, on a long mostly deserted drive, we came to this beach.
Neither of us had ever heard of it before.
There were people there, sunning and enjoying the sandy beach.
At the end of the road was a small pier and a place to drop boats into the water.
And if you look farther north you will see the Crystal River Power Plant.
The beach is really remote and reminded me of how the beaches used to be years ago before all the condos and hotels started lining the landscape.
This beach looks magnificent!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Old Florida to me - beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSounds like my kind of place. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe beach looks great.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a nice beach to me.
ReplyDeleteLove the power plant, looks like a big coal powered plant. I googled it and it is coal and natural gas and at 3449 kw capacity is huge!! (by Oklahoma standards anyway)
I am not at all a fan of crowded beaches. This would be more what I would enjoy.
ReplyDeleteHow nice to find a remote beach in this day and age. Nice photos of your trip.
ReplyDeleteOh your photos, the beach, the ocean - it's holiday time,
