This home is located on a deep canal with Gulf access. VERY large boats access this canal easily. There is one bridge going out to the Gulf but it is 40 feet high so NO height restrictions. The house is about 5 miles from the scalloping grounds & approximately 5-10 minutes drive from King’s Bay, 3 sisters springs, and hunter springs and 35 minutes from the Gulf of Mexico by boat (its a NO WAKE ZONE in the River, please be careful with manatees!!!). Fort Island Beach is also very close by, and we highly recommend seeing a sunset there! Great pics for your social media!
If you love fishing/scalloping, this is the place to be!
