Shell Island is a barrier island off Florida's Emerald Coast that has yet to be developed. It measures 7 miles, from east to west. It's composed of graceful sand dune, pine hammocks, as well shrub forest. The inland lake houses shorebirds as well as deer. Shell Island is home of many endangered and coastal wildlife species as well as crabs.
The St. Andrews State Park covers the western portion of Shell Island. It's as Florida is. So you won't need to stop at a restaurant or picnic table. But you'll have the opportunity to see some of East Coast's most beautiful wildlands. This tour will allow you to see many endangered species.

Agree with above, go around 11 a.m., to get the best of daytime sun, because April has some fairly cool days. over a year ago. I'd plan for late morning/early afternoon. There's no shade so if it is really warm you don't want to be there at the absolute hottest part of the day.
