The community sits along the Intracoastal Waterway, so there’s no surprise that you’ll find plenty of water-based activities and scenery to enjoy. There’s a nearby launch for kayaks, paddleboards, and other non-motorized water sports, which offers an ideal way to explore the natural beauty of the area. Located at the base of the Palm Valley Bridge on the Intracoastal Waterway, there’s on-site parking for easy transport and launching.

Just a few steps further south is Davis Park, ideal for sports, leisure, and a good time with your dogs. All ages will enjoy this outstanding park, which includes six baseball fields, six soccer/lacrosse fields, four softball fields, and three football fields. Children in Northeast St. Johns County can belong to the Ponte Vedra Athletic Association, a multi-sport recreational league. In addition, the park is home to a variety of sports programs including baseball, softball, and  youth soccer clubs, Pop Warner & Jr. Development football and cheerleading, and boys & girls lacrosse. There are also the Paws Dog Parks, one of which has a dog wash if you want to get your pet home clean after its playtime.

One of the many outstanding features of Nocatee is the Nocatee Preserve with more than 2,400 acres of wildly beautiful land fronting a 3.5-mile stretch of the Intracoastal Waterway known as the Tolomato River. The Nocatee Preserve is a rare conservation area of undisturbed old Florida flora and fauna, and allows a variety of passive recreations including hiking, biking, kayaking, horseback riding, bird watching and much more. There are both pedestrian and equestrian trails along the Preserve Trailhead, which is located south of Ponte Vedra High School. There are even restrooms and washing stations for bikes and horses available at the trailhead.

The Nocatee Preserve is just one important example of Nocatee’s long-term commitment to protecting the environment. This is why you’ll find a variety of outdoor spaces that not only offer a good time, but also help residents stay connected to nature.

All of these outstanding natural settings can be yours along with your own Ponte Vedra FL custom homes. Imagine living along the waterway or along the Preserve and getting to enjoy the wonders of nature right outside your home. Fortunately, there are still homesites available and a lot of active sales at River Landing, so contact us today to become a part of this idyllic community.
