Nature Walk on Big Talbot Island

The Shoreline Trail at the Bluffs picnic area provides access to the Nassau Sound beach. Black Rock Trail (off A1A) meanders through the maritime hammock delivering you to a one of a kind beach that has black, rocklike outcroppings and fallen trees that have become bleached and weathered with time. Big Pine Trail (off A1A) is a short walk to the shoreline and salt marshes along Simpson Creek. Old Kings Highway Trail and Jones Cut Trail (both on the west side of A1A) are unrefined trails that traverse through the heart of Big Talbot Island's lush maritime hammock and scrubby flatwoods.
