PONCE DE LEON LIGHTHOUSE (Ponce Inlet)












I have taken the entire Summer off, to relax and gather fresh ideas for my Designer Jewelry coming soon. Almost hate to get started again, because it was so relaxing with such beautiful land and seascapes, but it's almost that time to get busy once again. These are some photos that I took on one of our recent escapes. Ponce De Leon Lighthouse, Inlet Harbor Restaurant, Coastal waterways, Sea Life, Seabirds, Shorebirds etc.

Florida's tallest lighthouse, Ponce De Leon at Ponce Inlet. The largest and most complete Light Stations in the Nation, and hosts one of the largest Fresnel Lens Collections in the World!

We strolled along a Natural Florida Coastal Hammock, and ended at Beach Street, where we began our walk to the Lighthouse from the pier, and found ourselves back at the boat dock for cool tropical drinks and plenty of time to catch our sail to the Ponce Inlet Harbor Restaurant for dinner. Relaxing with drinks, dancing to a Reggae Band, just before our cruise by boat back to New Smyrna Beach. How wonderful and awesome the marine life and all that God has created.....Breathtaking!
