For those who like to fish or just sit in the sun the 200' pier with its covered deck is perfect. Mullet, flounder, redfish, and crabs are plentiful in this natural habitat. Have a relaxing evening watching the sunset or have a drink with friends.
For the little ones the sandy beach makes a perfect entrance into Little Lagoon's shallow waters. You will not have to worry about big waves or rip currents here when the Gulf is acting up. The large yard and shade underneath the house are the perfect places for children to play.
Golfing opportunities are numerous. The Peninsula Golf Course is practically across the street and Kiva Dunes is just a short drive as is the city course and Craft Farms.
