Gulf Islands National Seashore: 160 miles from Mississippi to Florida
The Gulf Islands National Seashore stretches 160 miles from Cat Island
in Mississippi to Santa Rosa Island in Florida and cuts across the state of Alabama.The Florida Areas of the seashore features offshore barrier islands with white sand beaches, miles of undeveloped land, and hiking trails.
In April 2010, The Deepwater Horizon oil spill released huge amounts of oil along the Gulf Islands National Seashore. On June 23, 2010, wave after wave of slicks and pools began covering the beaches on Santa Rosa Island, which led to fishing and swimming bans. The oil-spill disaster affected every large island in the group. The government estimated the total discharge of nearly 210 million US gallons! The Deepwater Horizon oil spill is regarded as one of the largest environmental disasters in world history. The cleanup effort was massive and very expensive, but worked as intended. For as much of Santa Rosa has been through, she has made a rosey return and it is a beautiful ride down the Gulf Coast!
