Beaches:
The Retreat at Blakeside offers several great public beach access options nearby. For an easy walk or bike ride, we typically use the Ramsgate Beach Access, located just across the street, about a 10 to 15 minute walk or a quick 5 minute bike ride. This is the most convenient option for guests heading out with chairs, umbrellas, or kids.
Another favorite is Eastern Lake, a beautiful and more natural access point. Depending on water levels, families may need to wade through a shallow section of the lake before reaching the Gulf, which can be a bit challenging with lots of beach gear but is well worth it for the scenery.
If you prefer to drive or use a golf cart, there is also a public beach access directly across from Prema Organic Cafe, offering another easy option to get your toes in the sand.
Multiple access points mean you can choose what fits your day best, whether that’s a quick walk, a scenic lake crossing, or an easy drive.
