This charming smaller pond, situated adjacent to Lake Ponte Vedra along Hammock Loop in the Guana River Wildlife Management Area, provides a nice break point to appreciate the water view.

The Guana River Wildlife Management Area's lookout towers offer stunning views over shallow, saltwater marshes, where you might see wading birds like kingfishers and rails. Keep an eye out for terrestrial wildlife like deer and raccoons too, near the upland forests or the water's edge.

The Guana River Wildlife Management Area is a coastal region featuring salt marshes, maritime hammocks, and pine flatwoods. It offers miles of trails to explore, providing opportunities to encounter wildlife along the way.

In the middle of nature, wonderfully quiet.
