St. Joe BayAugust 20 thru 22nd
This travellog covers some of the 3-day adventure we enjoyed with our son's family at Presnell's Fish Camp on St. Joe Bay near Port St. Joe, Florida. Campground info: Presnell's fish camp on St. Joseph Bay "rustic" sand sites, 30-amps and water with central sewer and the most beautiful sunsets anywhere for $33.30. This was during scallop season so I suspect the price would be much cheaper during other times of the year.
When we are not at a campground like Presnell's we are looking for 1/2 price camping opportunities at PPA Campgrounds.

St Joe Bay with Cape San Blas in distance
This is St. Joe Bay where we are finding these shells. As you can see the water is clear and it is easy to slowly drift along and spot these large shells. We saw several large sea turtles and 20 or more smaller green sea turtles during the three days we were on the water. While we tried to get pictures of the turtles none of them turned out.

The clear spot is a sand bar while the dark spots are grass beds here in St. Joe Bay.
Sealife of St Joe Bay
These are small shells that inhabit the grass beds in St. Joe Bay. If someone was so inclined these could be cleaned up and made into jewelry. We just let the boys look at them then returned them to the water.
Sun set over St Joe Bay from Presnell's Fish Camp
I think I have said it before but the sunsets from Presnell's Fish Camp over St. Joe Bay are to die for. This one was taken from our campsite at Presnell's Fish Camp.
It is a tough life, but someone has to document it. VBG
