Vibrant peach and apricot tones sure make the sunrise sweet at St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge, under a seemingly endless sky. As one of the oldest refuges in the National Wildlife Refuge System, St. Marks encompasses over 68,000 acres spread out along the #GulfCoast of northwest #Florida. The refuge is home to a diverse community of plant and animal life and includes coastal marshes, islands, tidal creeks and estuaries of seven north Florida rivers to explore. Walking trails, fishing opportunities, birdwatching -- the eagles are fun to watch this time of year--  or learning about the history of the St. Marks Lighthouse gives everyone in the family something to enjoy.

The St. Marks Lighthouse, one stop in our Springventure 2018 weekend trip. We walked around during low tide, saw a whole battalion of tiny crabs, and gazed out into the Gulf. Florida rules. #florida #stmarkslighthouse #gulfofmexico #stmarks #springventure2018 #lighthouse #nocrabbing https://www.instagram.com/p/BmcNBaQHdZf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=x3iz6sfakhe1
