Exploring Milton, FL: The Ultimate Local Guide for Saint-Tropez RV Park Guests

Nestled in Florida’s Panhandle, Milton is known as the "Canoe Capital of Florida". While Saint-Tropez RV Park offers a quiet place to unwind, step outside the park to find clear rivers, high-octane dirt track racing, scenic nature trails, local history, and pristine white-sand beaches just a short drive away.


Here are a few top things to do around Milton during your stay.

1. Paddle or Float Down the Blackwater River The Blackwater River is famous for its tea-colored, spring-fed waters, shallow sandbars, and surrounding longleaf pine forests.

  • Canoeing & Kayaking: Rent a kayak or canoe from local outfitters for a gentle drift downstream.

  • Tubing: Cool off on a hot afternoon by grabbing an inner tube and floating along the soft white sandbanks.

  • State Park Trails: Blackwater River State Park also offers miles of nature walks for birdwatching and hiking.


2. Catch High-Speed Dirt Track Action at Southern Raceway Known as "The South's Finest Dirt Track," Southern Raceway is a local favorite for an exciting Saturday night out and it's just down the road from Saint-Tropez RV Park! This 3/8-mile clay oval track hosts thrilling, fast-paced events featuring everything from sprint cars and late models to street stocks and vintage racers. With classic stadium concessions, lawn seating along the berm, and a fun, family-friendly atmosphere, it’s a great spot to grab a bite and experience grassroots Southern motorsports.


3. Savor Local Southern Bites After a day outdoors, sample local Florida Panhandle cooking:

  • Blackwater Bistro: A cozy spot in historic downtown offering Southern classics, fresh seafood, and outdoor dining.

    Visit Florida


  • David’s Catfish House: A local favorite for fried catfish, shrimp, and hushpuppies.


Whether you’re planning an outdoor adventure or a slow-paced beach afternoon, Milton is the perfect base camp. Park your rig at Saint-Tropez RV Park, kick back, and start exploring the Emerald Coast!
