Captain Mark is amazing. We initially booked a charter with a different captain in Palm Coast where…read morewe were staying for the weekend. The other captain canceled on us via text message 30 minutes before our trip was supposed to start. We were scrambling to find a replacement last minute on a Sunday. Someone recommended Captain Mark and we are so glad they did. He responded immediately and made arrangements to take us out on VERY short notice after he heard what happened. We had such a great day on the water. His boat was very nice, his knowledge of the area was impressive, and he put us on the fish. He was friendly and personable and patient. He cleaned our catch and sent us home happy. My dad had the best time. I would recommend Captain Mark to anyone and will definitely be booking with him again.

Yesterday, absolutely fantastic Captain Caleb Blackburn took us through the awesome adventure of…read morebackwater fishing. We caught all sorts of fish including red, sheepshead, stingray, black-drum, and others. This trip was a gift for my dad for his birthday. My father, husband, and I, had a blast. Even though we e love fishing and have always done so, we learned so much, improved our techniques, and truly enjoyed ourselves. Captain Caleb Blackburn not only has a passion for what he does, but has so much experience and has even rightfully won many competitions in many variations of fishing. Captain Caleb Blackburn is extremely well versed in what he does in every aspect. He will teach you how to cast correctly to catch what you'd like to fish for, advise you on how and where to find what you are looking for, and even inform you all about what environmental aspects affect your fishing success in each season that you are in. Captain Caleb Blackburn has an extensive wealth of knowledge pertaining to what he does, is funny, has many stories with pictures and videos to back it all up, and will make your experience be the best that you've ever had. He is also super attentive to what you need and will constantly be readjusting different strategies to accommodate each situation. He uses healthy live bait, brings everything you need including drinks, fully functioning and well taken care of great quality poles, and anything else you may need for a successful fishing experience. He will even clean out your fish for you. We highly recommend and loved every aspect about our experience with Captain Caleb Blackburn.

Mala Compra Trail is one of the two premier biking & hiking trails in Palm Coast (FL). The trail is…read moreoften overshadowed by it's big brother trail, Graham Swamp, a popular MTB trail just many miles South, where most riders tends to ride more. So what is so special about Mala Compra then? Well, Mala Compra is considered a blue rated trail (intermediate). It has 5.5 miles that loops its perimeter. Along the loops, you will encounter 24 Technical Features, which you can either attempt or bypass entirely. The loop itself is an easy trail. It becomes a challenging loop the more Technical Features you tackle. The loop is great for Intermediate or Advance Beginner riders. Mala Compra, in comparison to Graham Swamp Trail, is a more tamed trail....BUT...BUT... as Sir Bike-A-Lot would say "I like Big BUT and I cannot lie..."... what makes up for Mala Compra's hype is a trail called CLOUD 9. CLOUD 9 is a Double Black Diamond trail that you will find inside Mala Compra's loop. The trail is littered with black diamond (very difficult) and double black diamond (most difficult) trails. CLOUD 9 happens to be one of my favorite trails. It has been the most technical trail I've ridden to date. This is a "Proceed with Caution" type trail. Not that it's dangerous trail, but it just requires alot of balance and technique riding some of its obstacles and features. This is a trail where you do not want to get overzealous with either. One false move and it's SPLAT!!! Some CLOUD 9's features, I am humble enough to say that I will never dare try; I know my limits. But if you're up for the challenge, then be my MTB guest. Additionally, Mala Compra Trails is situated nearby a cool county park called Bing's Landing. Great scenery, has a boat ramp and a cool BBQ joint called Captain's BBQ, which makes for great post-biking feasting. And if you prefer hiking, there's a trail for you inside Mala Compra too. What more can you ask for?

Looking for a little outdoor adventure? This is the place! The trails are well marked and…read moreidentified for mountain bikes, walkers/runners and even horses. We made the trip south of St. Augustine to ride our fat tire bikes on the trails. We aren't beginners but we aren't experts either and the blue trail was perfect for our level of ability. There were some technical aspects on the trail but each one had an option to go around it. There is an option to ride a more technical trail called Cloud 9 but we didn't venture onto it. We'll definitely go back because we weren't able to ride all of the trails. Bonus - there's a great barbecue restaurant across the street from the trails so after you've worked up an appetite you can grab a bite to eat!

It seems economic development has stirred a few of the local folk who call this county home and it's creating quite a stink. A local coalition is opposing a proposed dump site for Class B biosolids, also called "sewage sludge," in the southern part of the county basically the citizens here are opposed to have their neighboring counties poop dumped amongst them. I'm sure most can agree that we don't appreciate the neighbor's dog eliminating on our lawns much less having up to five truck loads of this sanitary sewer being deposit near our homes and surrounding areas we use for recreational activities - these types of disagreements have been going on for eons and it's always about money whether it's the profits of the contractors applying for the permit or the devaluation of the local homeowner's properties and some other concerns that always gets downplayed. Well I don't have a dog in the fight but I do have compassion for those that do and my interest in this county has always been about enjoying the outdoors whether it's camping or hiking the numerous trails or spending time on one of the many lakes scattered around the area, the bottom line is that I spend money here and that has a positive impact on the local economy like many others do, this revenue contributes to the good of all as it should - now I'm not saying business profits don't have the same impact it just passes through a few more hands and may trickle outside the county. Well I hope the coalition wins and I can continue to enjoy the benefits Putnam County offers without the odors - this place reeks of clean air and that's how we like it so hopefully they "don't poop on Putnam County...
