Bald Point State Park

Bald Point State Park is a protected area on a peninsula south of Ochlockonee Bay with forested regions, wetland areas, and sandy beaches along its eastern side. The various habitats support multiple trails for walking and biking as well as water access points for kayakers.

The area was protected to preserve coastal ecosystems and the wildlife that depends on them. This conservation effort reflects a commitment to maintaining the natural landscape for the future.

The park serves as a nesting site for sea turtles and a resting place for coastal birds that stop during their journeys. Local wildlife relies on these habitats for food and shelter throughout the year.

The park provides walking trails, beach access points with outdoor showers, and kayak launch areas for water recreation. Visitors should plan their visit in early morning hours for better wildlife viewing and to avoid midday heat.

The park serves as a critical stopover point for migrating raptors, wading birds, and monarch butterflies as they travel along the Gulf coast. Millions of these creatures rely on the habitats here for food and rest during their long journeys.
