Walk on the Wild Side

Join a Park Ranger at 9:00 a.m.on the last Saturday of each month at Anastasia State Park to observe what life is like on the wild side. This walk starts out with a leisurely stroll through the Maritime Hammock, continuing along Salt Run, our estuarine habitat, then having an intermission and rest room break at the Windsurf Pavilion. The walk will continue from there along the boardwalk over the salt marsh, through the sand dunes, and finishing on the shoreline. Participants of the walk will discover… Show more an assortment of flora and fauna that are the makeup of the fabulous ecosystems of Anastasia, and possibly increase their knowledge of some history of the park and the surrounding area. The full length of the walk is 2.5 miles round trip. Participants may chose to only walk the first half to Windsurf to shorten the length of the walk if preferred. Suggested items to bring are binoculars, comfortable walking shoes, camera, drinking water, bug spray, and sunscreen. This program is free with paid park admission. Meet at the Ranger Station.
