We returned recently from a delightful week
(June15, 2003) at the Harbour Club in Palm
Coast,
FL.. the units are fairly large with 2-bedrooms,
2-bathrooms, full kitchen and a large screened
porch.. the resort is part of a rather large
resort complex previously owned by ITT
Sheraton
and includes a resort hotel and a marina on
the
intercoastal waterway.. an outdoor pool,
miniature golf, shuffle board, bicycle rental and
an activity center are among the resort's
amenities.. a TERRRIFIC 3-mile paved path
skirts
the intercoastal from the resort into the town
center for strolling. biking, roller blading,
etc..
Over the intercoastal bridge (a $2 fee going,
but
free on the return trip) is an area referred to
by the Spanish as the 'Hammocks'.. a
considerable
amount of development is on-going here with a
major golf club and residential home building..
here on Jungle Hut Road is a secluded,
WONDERFUL
beach with soft cinnamon colored sand,
swooping
Pelicans and frolicking Dolphins..
About an hour's drive north is ST. Augustine,
the
nation's oldest settlement.. along the way on
A1A
(the scenic coastal highway) is a state park
and
and oceanarium, both worth visiting..
To the south about an hour's drive is the
frantic
activity of Daytona Beach which includes
NASCAR
racing, flee markets and shopping.. not to be
missed, again along A1A, is the community of
Flagler Beach and many freely accessible public
beach facilities where we enjoyed picnic
lunches
from the nearest Publix deli..
