This bird-watching area features a long boardwalk cutting through a wetland where tourists can spot plenty of alligators. Visit the observation tower of Roberts Point Park if you would like to enjoy panoramic views of the bay. Wondering where to stay? A glamping adventure is an excellent alternative to a standard hotel.
