Message From The Manager

The clear waters, white sands and expansive seagrass beds of St. Joseph Bay Aquatic Preserve make this area a water lover’s playground. From fishing and kayaking, to snorkeling and scalloping, St. Joe Bay provides a unique opportunity to enjoy activities often reserved for Aquatic Preserves further south. A collection of managed lands surrounding the St. Joseph Bay Aquatic Preserve aim to preserve the area’s natural beauty and ensure that its unique character persists for the continued enjoyment by the public. The slower pace of smalltown life provided by Port St. Joe, the promise of fresh local seafood and endless recreational opportunities make St. Joseph Bay and its surrounding areas ideal for an escape to natural Florida. 

Sincerely,

Megan Christopher
