Secluded, serene beauty awaits you at St. Joseph's! The beaches here were rated #1 in the nation in 2002. There's no high-rise condos, t-shirt stalls, or noisy spring beakers, just the peace and quiet of undiscovered old Florida. There are 2 camp areas. Gulf Breeze, which is just behind the dunes to where you can hear the surf, has 99 sites with water and electric. Shady Pines, more secluded and more well, shady, is in the interior closer to the bay, and has 20 sites with water only.
