Camp Helen State Park

This park is beautiful. We stopped for a short time but what we saw was very nice. We saw a pelican and even a bald eagle. There is a nice dock you can walk on and a visitors center.

My wife and I were staying in Panama City Beach and we had a car for a few days, so we drove towards Destin. We stopped at a few State Parks and Camp Helen was the first one. Lots of cool...

Such a cool stare park with a very interesting history...before it was a park, it was a rat stop for travelers to be able to rest. Then, it became a vacation resort that a company in Georgia...

Cute park with a little of everything. $4/vehicle or $2/person (biking, walking, etc.). Nice people inside the Welcome Center and they have a Bingo game for kids where they can hunt for things...

This was a very cool and apparently rare park. The sand is soft and there were plenty of small fish and different crustaceans for the kids to see. We had a blast here.
