It used to be that you had to wait to cross the one-lane pontoon boat bridge to get from the Mainland out to the island and beach. It used to be a horrible nightmare during the busy summer season.
But that has changed with the opening of the new bridge. This is a high rise bridge that spans the intercoastal waterway. The views from it are amazing. I found this short video with pictures of the grand opening. At the end there is a video of the old pontoon bridge and how it worked. The pictures from the bridge are beautiful. You can even see some of Sea Trail and the golf courses.
The second video give's a little bit of history of the area and how the old swing bridge worked.
Enjoy!
One activity we can do is Kayak the salt marshes. You can see them from the first video.
ReplyDeleteI'd love kayaking! I've rafted the Arkansas here in CO several times.
