Cape San Blas, Florida
Cape San Blas
is southeast from Panama City on the hump of the panhandle. It is a remote
peninsula that is utterly peaceful and gorgeous. We stayed at St. Joseph's Peninsula State
Park, where the 7 mile stretch of beach and and maritime forest abounded with
wildlife. If you want peace and quiet and a
real nature infusion, this is a highly recommended spot!
We did a lot of nature walks, beach exploration, and
inner reflection. Cape San Blas was the ideal
"womb space" we
needed to detox and rest from our rapid move from Asheville and to coalesce as a
family in our new life. We wound up staying there for 3 months.
