Thirteen offshore islands designated as wilderness areas offer spectacular and rare viewing for birding and wildlife enthusiasts.

Nice paddle out Refuge from the beach kayak rental. We paddled to the north end of the island and hiked to the old cemetery. Nice trail not buggy, but they say they can be bad. The old cemetery is interesting. AS long as the tide is up you can continue on around the island and cut through the middle. Its shallow and if the tide is low you will need to paddle all the easy around the island or return the same way you came. You will find the backwaters of Cedar Keys to be very shallow and high tides are needed to be able to get around in them on a kayak or boat. Its VERY pretty paddling in the mangroves and the Cedar Key water tower is visible for a reference point.

This is a husband and wife business and both places are very nice. The husband's store was a great shopping experience and his wife walked us to her business which is like ten steps away to purchase ammunition. Her bar is closed due to covid but the inside is very nice. She actually took a picture of me inside her bar. They are very nice people and you will not be disappointed at either place.

One of the largest unspoiled estuarine systems in the U.S.
Reviewed By Exploration765958 - Saint Cloud, United States
We were in the area for a quick "one night truck tent" adventure, and before setting up camp we found the "Lower Suwannee Nature Drive" which was absolutely beautiful 9 mile drive through the Suwannee National Wildlife Refuge. It's a scenic drive with so many places to stop and get photos of nature. During the drive you will notice a BAT HOUSE and at Sunset the adult bats head out for insects and return back to feed their young. Although we did not see that due to the time we were there, I have seen many reviews on Trip Advisor of folks who have wittnessed it. So if you are looking to take a trip in Nature, this place is for you.
