Blowing Rocks Preserve has the longest and most dramatic stretch of rocky coastline in Florida. This preserve on Jupiter Island contains a rock terrace at the water’s edge of Anastasia limestone that is tinted red with iron. During high tide or stormy seas, waves pound the eroded terrace and “blow” through holes in the rock. Salt spray plumes can reach up to 50 feet in the air!

hahahah!! you beat me… i started a post on this most amazing place months ago. is it published? nope!
i love visiting this area. LOVE it.
It is one of our new favorite spots!
I love hiking around the sea grapes… Just beautiful.
It’s really interesting the way it forms a tunnel. Those plants are some of the largest sea grapes that I’ve ever seen.
One of our favorite places to visit, especially at high tide. Great shots, Pam 🙂
It’s an hour and a half for us to get there, but sometimes it is just the right place to be!
