I just returned from a trip to SeaColony, and I thought it might be worthwhile to blog on some of the activities I enjoy enjoy doing while at SeaColony.  Perhaps this brief narrative will give you some ideas about what you can do when you're in Palm Coast. At the very least, I hope to portray some of the beauty of one of Floriday's most beautiful beaches.

First, here's a picture of the clubhouse in the early morning light. This is a short walk from the house...The SeaColony benches that extend from the club house, offer a bird's eye view of the ocean. Remarkably, on occasion, I have seen North Right Whales in the early morning during the winter when when they head south for winter--and to give birth...  Hanging poolside, maybe ready another book, is really relaxing, although the hottub could be warmer:

I suppose my favorite activity is most prosaic: walking on the beach in the morning or evening.  It's fun to see what washes ashore. One time in a block's walk I saw over a dozen star fish. Crazy. It is fairly common to see dolphin running along the coast or in the Intracoastal. Here are a couple of shots from my most recent trip.

If you walk south along the ocean, there is no development other than the Ocean Hammock golf course, home of the Ginn Championship. For much of the walk, there's just the  beauty of the sea and nature...but eventually, maybe a mile or so, you come across the Hammock Beach resort.

If you get a little too much wind, look for the path that runs along the beach up to the golf course:

Another activity that I enjoy is kayaking. From Bing's Landing, which is across the street from SeaColony on A1A, you can get quick and easy access to a rather large bird sanctuary. On weekend mornings, you may see other kayakers around but on most days you don't see anybody. If you decide that you want to rent a kayak, you may want to call ahead to ensure that they're available:

Here are a couple more pics from my trip last week

It is perhaps worth noting that these pictures were taken at low tide. From these pictures you can see the oyster beds which can really scratch up the bottom of your kayak if you're not careful during low tide:

From Bing's Landing, with or without a kayak, you can see some dophin and some very beautiful sunsets:  

 If you want to get out andhave a nice dinner, St. Augustine is about 20 minutes away along A1A.
