Tucker Loop

This is the longest trail in Bald Point State Park, spanning an impressive 6.34-miles and circling the park’s largest saltwater lake, Tucker Lake. Enjoy the view of the sparkling water as you take a long stroll through nature.

Tucker Loop is situated in Bald Point State Park which is located on Alligator Point, where Ochlockonee Bay meets Apalachee Bay. This park has some of the most picturesque nature views that exist along the entire Gulf Coast of Northern Florida. Hosting an impressive 4,065 acres of upland terrain, Bald Point State Park offers diverse on-land and water-based activities, including hiking, bird watching, fishing, paddling, swimming, and even windsurfing.

The park’s varied landscapes range from coastal marshes, pine flatwoods, and oak thickets, all of which support a unique ecosystem and foster diverse biological communities. Visiting in the fall is highly recommended for those who enjoy wildlife viewing because bald eagles and other migrating raptors, along with monarch butterflies, can be seen flying through the sky as they make their journey south for the winter.
