Cape San Blas is a seventeen-mile peninsula along Florida’s Big Bend – jutting out from the mainland of the Port St. Joe area. On the Gulf-facing side of the peninsula, you’ll find white sand beaches, gentle surf and towering sand dunes. On the St. Joe Bay-facing side, serene shallow waters are great for small boats, kayaking, snorkeling, scalloping and more.
“The Cape” is a favorite for vacationing families, second homeowners and permanent residents who choose the area for its beauty & seclusion. The Cape is low in density with only two units per acre on the bay and three units per acre on the beach. There are no high-rise buildings and limited commercialism. The wildlife is abundant with frequent sightings of bald eagles, ospreys, herons, loggerhead turtles and dolphins.
Area Highlights:
- Cape San Blas is home to the noteworthy Joseph Peninsula State Park that boasts 2,416 acres of protected land, clear waters, towering sand dunes, and plenty of native wildlife.
