Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park
"Flagler Beach is the closest coastal community, making the park an easy inland detour. Visitors from the beach often come for shaded trails, ruins, and a change of scenery."
Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park features the largest remaining sugar mill ruins in East Florida, surrounded by a peaceful hammock of live oaks and palmettos. The park offers a glimpse into Florida’s territorial-era history along with birdwatching, picnicking, and access to the scenic Bulow Creek area.
Faver-Dykes State Park
"Flagler Beach visitors often pair a beach day with a creek-side adventure. The park is ideal for kayaking, birdwatching, and camping away from the surf."
Faver-Dykes State Park features a scenic tidal creek, salt marshes, and forested uplands that make it a favorite for canoeing, kayaking, and wildlife viewing. Visitors also enjoy primitive-style camping, fishing, and a calm natural setting close to the Atlantic coast.
