Stump hole hike

May 21, 2023 - Over Yonder On The Cape

Visitors to Cape San Blas, FL or Port St. Joe, FL often take the hike at the Stump Hole (The rocks...) to the Southern tip of Cape San Blas.  This is a great hike but be prepared with suntan lotion, water, bug spray and water shoes (probably not flip flops).

There are lots of downed trees and other obstacles you may have to navigate and depending on the tide, you may or may not be wading through the water. However, it is a great hike for those capable of making the trip.   

This is a unique and fun hike - Highly Recommended!  Watch for the Eagles that nest in trees along the route, you may see Dolphins in the surf, along with many other wildlife species.  If this hike is too much for you or you are looking for other hikes on Cape San Blas, consider the Martime Hammock Trail which is only 1/2 mile and provides easier navigation but well worth the effort as well.

Directions:

* Find a parking spot along the Rocks (aka Stump Hole).

* Start your hike heading to the left (as you face the Gulf).

* Head about two miles until you get to the tip.


Over Yonder On The Cape - Located in SeaCliffs gated Community on Cape San Blas, FL - Great place to stay.  It is new, modern, sleeps 10 (in beds, not on couches), has elevator, dog friendly for a fee, and has great view of the Gulf from each King Master (there are 2) as well as a Queen room and Bunk Room, all with their own private baths.
