The are east of the town is heavily wooded and once formed part of the huge swathes of southern woodlands that were earmarked in the 1820s to provide lumber for shipbuilding.
The Navl Live Oaks Reservation, off US 98, was originally a government-owned tree farm and now protects some of the remaining woodland. Visitors can follow trails through 1300 acres of oak hammock woodlands, sand-hill areas and wetlands where wading birds feast off an abundance of marine life.
Ten miles east of Gulf Breeze, The Zoo, is a favourite family excursion, where there are more than 700 animals in residence. You can take a ride on the Safari Line train through 30 acres of land where animals roam freely, catch a show by Ellie the Elephant, or stroll the botanical gardens. Visitors even get the chance to look a giraffe in the eye from the high-rise feeding platform.
