Suri-Suri Sunrise ... Bay Front, Pool, Ground Level, Pets in Panacea

Great fishing!!! Great seafood!!! Relaxing atmosphere ... right here
on the forgotten coast!!!

Our comfortable 1 bedroom/1 bath condo is located on the first floor
(ground level - Unit F7) of George�s Lighthouse Point on Ochlockonee
Bay, 40 miles south of Tallahassee on Hwy. 98. Right outside our
front door is a gorgeous view of the bay. To the back of us, there
is a wonderful view of the marina. Just a few steps away is Angelo's
Restaurant, regularly voted as one of the "Top 100 Restaurants in
Florida". Newly remodeled (courtesy of Hurricane Dennis), Angelo's
boasts mouth watering seafood (and other dishes), with indoor seating
and casual outdoor seating right over the water!

We offer approximately 800 sq. ft. of living area, which includes 1
bedroom, 1 bathroom, den, kitchen and patio overlooking the bay. The
family area is furnished with a comfortable sleeper sofa and is open
to the kitchen. Our bedroom is furnished with a king-size bed and a
twin bed. These accommodations will sleep 3 to 5 people comfortably.
Perfect for a small group or family.

The fishing is as good as it gets in this area. You can fish in the
bay, head out for deep-sea fishing, or go down the river for fresh
water fishing. We have it all!!! If you bring your boat, you can rent
a boat slip for $10 a day at Bayside Marina, which is a couple of
miles down the road. If you don't have a boat, you can book a
fishing charter with your choice of licensed captains, who are ready to take
you out for an experience that you won't soon forget!

Another local attraction are the beaches. The closest beach is Mashes
Sands in Panacea (less than 1 mi.). It offers a beautiful, small
beach. The beach is located on the bay and is pretty shallow for a good ways out, offering safety for small children and a great opportunity for shelling. Next are the gorgeous beaches at Alligator Point and Bald Point State Park (about 7 mi.), where you can enjoy sunbathing, snorkeling, swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, bird watching and nature study. Within a few minutes drive are two of the nation's TOP TEN RATED BEACHES, St. George Island State Park, near Apalachicola, and St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, near Port St. Joe. Both parks contain miles of undeveloped beaches, emerald waters and white sugar sand.

Other nearby attractions include St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge, an unspoiled barrier island just offshore from the mouth of the Apalachicola River in the Gulf of Mexico. The island is a haven for endangered and threatened species, including bald eagles, wood storks, sea turtles, indigo snakes, gopher tortoises and red wolves. It is accessible only by boat. A favorite is Wakulla Springs State Park, one of the world's deepest freshwater springs, with swimming, nature boat rides and glass bottom boats. Wakulla Springs is known as the shooting location for several Tarzan movies, Creature from the Black Lagoon and Airport �77. From the river boat and glass bottom boat tours, you can see alligators, many species of wading birds, water fowl, fish, turtles, and snakes, in and among the crystal clear waters emerging from the depth of the springs. Kids love diving from the diving platform into the refreshing spring waters, which remain a constant 68-70 degrees year round. The St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge features the St. Marks Lighthouse, and offers a habitat for all kinds of Florida wildlife. (Bald eagles are often spotted here-so keep your eyes peeled!)

So the guys want to go fishing and you ladies don�t ...NO PROBLEM! While they are catching speckled trout, Spanish mackerel, grouper, redfish (the list goes on), you can visit historic Apalachicola. Once a bustling sea port, this quaint village of about 5,000 still boasts a large shrimp fleet, a downtown shopping area with antiques, boutiques and local art, and beautiful restored houses from a bygone era. Once the third largest cotton port along the Gulf Coast, the Apalachicola/East Point area still harvests and processes 90% of the
oysters consumed in Florida.  Locally caught seafood is prepared in the many fine restaurants located in Panacea, Carrabelle, and Apalachicola. If you prefer to cook it yourself, fresh shrimp, oysters, and the catch of the day are available in the seafood houses dotted along the coast from Panacea to Port St. Joe.
