Bahia Honda State Park Redux

We've talked before about Bahia Honda State Park which is truly a beautiful place and it has what was considered one of the top 10 beaches in the United States a few years ago, but as beautiful a beach as it has, the bridges are really what are as picturesque as anything. It seems that everytime we go by we take a few more pictures of the old Flagler Railroad Bridge.


Look closely and you can see the newer bridge built in the late 70's. We actually drove our first motorhome across the old bridge which is just a tad too narrow for my comfort (I actually took the step off).

The beaches where you swim and that follow along the camping area and even on the backside have water that is so clear you would think that it was a backyard pool.




We road our bikes over to this park (6 miles roundtrip!)as our campground is on Ohio Key adjacent to one end of the park. We have in the past just taken our boat out and beached it or anchored off shore in the shallows to swim in what is reasonably warm water.

As I said before, we have shown this place before but its such a neat place that we had to recommend visiting it to anyone in the area. Even better if your lucky enough to get a reservation to camp there the campgrounds are nice.
