Blowing Rocks Preserve, Jupiter Florida

Hello and Happy Monday!

Jan 5th,  we visited one of my hubby's favorite places in Florida which was the Blowing Rocks Preserve near Jupiter Florida. We read about this preserve in one of our AAA magazines and knew we had to visit. It is a Nature Conservancy preserve, a protected section of limestone coastline. During high tides the waves crash against the rocks and force the water at times as much as  50 ft skyward. 






This is the trail to the beach. The sea grape tree provide a shady walk to the beach.



A pretty day to be at the beach, calm ocean water.


The limestone rocky shore. 


The Sanderlings were seen on all the beaches in Florida.







A lovely sky day, I enjoy watching the clouds. 






These Ruddy Turnstones were begging for food from the fisherman on the beach. 





The ocean has carved some interesting shapes and holes into the limestone rocks.  


While hubby was enjoying watching the waves hitting the rocks, I was enjoying the pelicans flying by me.

We also took a walk to see the nearby Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse, Jupiter Florida
