Deer Lake State Park, State park near Santa Rosa Beach, United States.
The 1,200-acre state park features a rare coastal dune lake system connected to the Gulf of Mexico through natural channels and sand dunes.
The protected coastal dune lake ecosystem has remained unchanged since the formation of Florida's shoreline thousands of years ago.
The park represents Florida's commitment to environmental conservation by maintaining natural habitats for native species and migratory birds.
Visitors can access the beach through a dedicated boardwalk, while the park provides facilities for swimming, fishing, and hiking along marked trails.
The park contains one of the fifteen rare coastal dune lakes in Walton County, creating a distinct environment where fresh and salt water mix periodically.
