Egmont Beach
Egmont Beach Review
An undeveloped island teeming with birds, shells, and native plants is a short ferry ride away. You'll find serene lengths of beach, abandoned former military buildings, and a lighthouse. You can grab a ferry here from Fort De Soto for as little as $15. Amenities: none. Best for: solitude; walking.
