Mexico Beach Wildlife Field Guide
Mexico Beach, Florida, offers nature lovers a diverse and unique experience that stands in sharp contrast to Florida’s southern Gulf Coast.
At least fifty-seven different ecosystem types occur in Northwest Florida, from flatwoods to the artificial reefs located here in the Gulf of Mexico. One doesn’t need to venture far from the pristine white-sand beaches to encounter the truly wild. Brackish tidal marshes, extensive savannas, and crystal clear springs are all just minutes away and waiting for you to explore.
In addition to staples such as manatees, dolphins, and the American alligator, did you know that black bears also roam the forests near Florida’s Gulf Coast? Find out what other amazing wildlife lives nearby when you visit Mexico Beach, a true adventurer’s paradise! Your adventure begins when you book your stay at one of Mexico Beach’s charming Beach Houses, Inns, Hotels, or RV Parks.
