Black's Island is a rare and exciting opportunity to enjoy your own private paradise - perhaps the only semi-tropical island of its kind in such a desirable U.S. location.
The 7.5 acre island is set in the pristine waters of the St. Joseph Bay - a 73,000 acre bay opening into the Gulf of Mexico, much of which is a designated aquatic preserve, teeming with a greater variety of sea life than that of any other Florida region. All types of fish, sea urchins, crabs and sea horses populate the bay, while horse conch and scallops roam the undersea terrain and giant sea turtles return each summer to lay their eggs on the island's shores
A semi-tropical island blessed with freshwater springs, this natural paradise abounds with black mangroves, flowering cacti and yaupon holly, and is a favorite resting place for migrating butterflies and snow-white pelicans. Black's Island is the chosen wintering spot for many ducks and geese as well as home to giant egrets, ospreys and eagles.
Only accessible by boat, seaplane or helicopter, this Black's Island has been developed into a magical, secluded paradise retreat, complete with world-class accommodations and amenities.
