Sandy and fun, the singletrack and doubletrack trail is a mix of sand, grass, and lush mats of pine needles. The Prickly Pear Trail is a beautiful, scenic trail on the bayside of Coastal Highway (Rt 1). You might see wild turkeys, great blue herons, egrets, and eastern box turtles. Some of the trail might be tricky to ride with narrow tires. And bring bug spray if you plan to stop during the warm months. The biting flies can be killer.
