Much nature to see and enjoy. I am afraid pollution will destroy our parks in the next 10 years. Co2 emmissions from gas powered vehicles are destroying our area. We need to stand up to corporate America and demand a $50 hike on ALL gas powered engines including chainsaws and lawnmowers. Demand a gas tax and emmissions testing for all gas vehicles. Let's do what we can now to clean earth up! Let's go Escambia!!!! This is a beautiful park! Much nature to see and enjoy. I am afraid pollution will destroy our parks in the next 10 years.

Tea colored water which has leached organic material to stain the water is not my cup of tea, I prefer the clean clear water in rivers in Northeastern Florida. The white sand though is beautiful. I wish there were more public access launches on the lower Blackwater River so people could explore the natural beauty of our waterways. The beaches are beautiful and tourists flock to them, but there is so much more natural beauty than just the beaches and tourists need to discover the natural beauty of inland panhandle Florida.
