March 17 Middle of nowhere by Elle

San Bernard is a favorite for birding and butterfly watching because it is off the beaten path, has no amenities, and is a great reminder of how absolutely wonderful the coast is. Go in summer and donate your blood to the mosquitos and deer flies!

December 11 Coastal Marsh Bliss by WildlifeMama

If you love coastal wetlands habitat you will love San Bernard National Wildlife Refuge! Anglers can fish and crab on the lakes and creek, and there are areas for waterfowl hunting. Kayaks, small motorboats and canoes can be launched from the boat ramp. Driving on the roadway can be exciting too! I stopped and saw alligators just a few feet away from my car! One gator moved closer to me, presumably for having me for lunch. The movement was not noticeable. So be careful if you go, watch out for the gators! At a different time of year, I saw a heard of wild hogs running. Always you will see different things if you have the opportunity to visit multiple times.

May 17 limited fun by Fred Smith

Better in Feb.,Mar., before migratory birds all leave. The rest of the year is just for exercise. No facilities. Bring anything you might need.
